Thank
you.
So
much
any
other

A
A
All
right,
miss
barnes.
Are
you
ready
to
call
first
case.
F
So
there
are
several
cases
that
the

I
know
two

brb
each

vrb,
2197
and
vrb.
21
106

and
there
is
a
email
from
agent

A
Okay,

F
Correct

E
And

pedestal
from
the
city
attorney's
office,
chemist

the
same
september.
F
Correct
so
anastasia
barnes
applicants

are
the
agents
for
vrb
2124,
vrb
2197
and
brb
21
106

be
continued

the
next
hearing
september
14th
at

30
p.m.
A
B
21,

A
E
I'm

gandy
boulevard

6604
south
bell
mabry
highway.
Did
I
miss
one.
A
E
B
A
All
right,
we
have
a
motion
for
continuance
of
those
three
cases.
Do
we
have
a
second
second
all
right
motion
in
a
second
all,
those
in
favor,
please
say:
aye.
B
A
Opposed
none,
okay,
motion
carriers.
All
three
cases
are
continued
until
september
14th,
miss
barnes.
Is
there
any
other
business
that
we
need
to
address
this
evening
before
we
call
the
first
case.
F
The
zoning
is
rm
24
and
the
request
is
to
reduce
the
rear
east
setback
from
20
feet
to
point
14.1
feet
for
unit
one
and
two
reduce
side
south
set
back
from
seven
feet
to
three
point:
five
feet
for
unit
two
and
reduce
the
side.
North
setback
from
seven
feet
to
one
point:
seven
feet
per
unit,
one
to
construct
a
additional
living
space
for
an
existing
accessory
structures,
they're
connected
by
one
wall.
F
A
G
G
We're
we're
requesting
the
variant
to
be
the
side
side
and
rear
setbacks
be
moved.
We
are
looking
to
go
straight
up
from
those
walls
that
you
can
see
there,
where
the
existing
structure
is
to
build
additional
living
space
on
both
sides.
One
and
two,
the
hardships
are
unique
to
this
property
due
to
the
accessory
building
service
door
being
located
in
the
rear
of
the
structure,
making
it
impractical
impractical
to
put
a
staircase
on
the
rear
versus
the
side
of
the
structure.
G
G
G
No
one
person's
health,
safety
or
welfare
will
be
affected
negatively
the
variances
in
harmony
with
the
tampa
comprehensive
plan
and
is
a
matching
similar
to
numerous
houses
on
the
same
street
and
in
the
area,
including
209,
south
moody,
208,
south
moody,
204,
south
albany,
209,
south
albany,
201,
fremont
and
203
fremont
avenue,
allowing
this
variance
will
result
in
substantial
justice
considering
the
benefits
of
the
immediate
area.
G
A
There
will
be
a
moment
for
questions
after
after
your
presentation
and
if
there's
anyone
else
in
the
audience
who
would
like
to
speak
on
this
presentation,
we'll
have
an
opportunity
for
questions
then,
but
for
now
you
have
roughly
seven
minutes
to.
If
you
have
any
further
information
you
want
to
submit
to
us.
If
there's
not,
you
can
stop
and
then
we'll
have
those
opportunities
for
questions.
That's
up
to
you.
G
Okay,
the
only
other
thing
I
have
is
the
variance
that
was
granted
for
208
south
moody
going
down
to
zero
feet
for
their
side
setback,
and
I
printed
out
a
copy
of
that.
A
A
A
Understood
all
right
is
there
anyone
in
the
audience
who
wishes
to
speak
about
this
application
all
right,
seeing
none,
then
I
will
open
it
up
for
board
questions.
Now.
A
I
have
one
quick
question.
You
talked
about
some
other
applications
or
some
other
addresses
that
were
nearby.
That
also
had
similar
setbacks.
Do
you
happen
to
have
any
photographs
of
those.
C
And
just
a
quick
question:
are
these
separate
additional
units
on
top
of
the
garage?
Are
they
connected
to
the.
A
All
right:
well,
you
have
three
minutes
for
a
bottle.
If
there's
anything
that
was
asked
that
you
need
to
address.
G
Okay,
I
can't
think
of
anything
else.
We
uploaded
the
plans
and
yeah.
I
can't
think
of
anything.
Thank
you
so
much
for
your
time.
A
C
I
just
feel
this
is
a
tough
one.
It's
a
very
dense
alley
there
already
adding
more
density-
and
you
know
more
construction
to
this
area
seems
with
such
small
setbacks,
even
though
they
exist
in
other
places.
D
You
know
my
thought
was
kind
of
the
opposite
and
that,
like
it
seems
to
contribute
to
the
character
that-
or
I
guess
it
content
seems
to
continue
with
the
character
of
the
neighborhood
to
allow
you
know
an
additional.
Like
a
second
story.
We
can
see
in
the
picture
here
that
that's
similar
to
the
property,
that's
next
door
and
even
the
one
that's
next
door.
To
that,
I
don't.
D
I
don't
really
have
a
problem
with
this,
because
you
know
he's
not
tearing
down
the
garage
and
like
backing
it
up
to
the
street
even
further.
He
seems
to
just
be
going
up,
and
so
you
know
roughly
the
setbacks
will
remain
the
same,
save
for
the
staircase,
which
seems
like
I,
you
know
I
haven't
seen
any
alternative
and
I
can't
think
of
an
alternative
that
would
allow
you
know
the
staircase
is
not
to.
I
guess,
encroach
further
into
the
setbacks.
A
Okay,
well,
given
those
counter-railing
viewpoints,
does
anyone
want
to
make
a
motion.
D
D
D
With
these
with
the
property,
the
the
garage
already
encroaching
into
the
rear
setback
and
the
variants,
if
granted,
will
not
substantially
interfere
or
injure
the
health,
safety
and
welfare
of
others.
Who
would
be
affected
by
the
variants?
D
Because
the
reduction
in
to
the
side
setbacks
is
for
the
construction
of
a
staircase
to
lead
up
to
the
second.
The
proposed
second
story.
B
D
B
A
We
have
a
motion
and
a
second
to
approve.
Let's
go
ahead
and
vote
all
those
in
favor
say:
aye
aye.
I
was
opposed.
Okay,
all
right,
four,
two
one,
your
motion
improved,
thank
you
and
have
a
good
evening.
Thank.
F
F
F
A
Okay
is
the
applicant
here
looks
like
some
folks
are
standing
there
come
on
up
state,
your
name,
your
address
and
please
confirm
that
you've
been
sworn.
A
E
Not
been
sworn
so,
madam
clerk's
gonna
swear
them
in.
A
All
right
so
once
again
state
your
name,
your
address
and
then
we've
seen
you
be
sworn
but
just
confirm
that
you've
been
this.
H
A
Okay,
so
you've
raised
some
issues
that
I
appreciate
and
that
we
can
understand
regarding
personal
care.
The
the
hardships
that
we
need
to
consider
cannot
be
personal
in
nature.
They
cannot
involve
the
people
living
on
the
property
per
se
or
specifics
related
to
them,
because
the
the
hardships
are
going
to
run
with
the
land.
So
what
we're
here
to
listen
for
and
what
I,
what
you
need
to
explain
to
us
is
the
hardships
that
are
specific
to
the
property
themselves.
A
Why
does
why
does
the
setback
need
to
change
because
of
some
condition
of
the
property
because
of
some
condition
of
the
existing
structures?
I
should
also
point
out
that
the
hardships
cannot
be
financial
in
nature.
So
the
fact
that
something
is
built
and
may
need
to
be
removed
is
not
something
for
our
consideration
or
something
that
we
can
rely
upon.
H
H
So
when
he
changed
something
for
living
space
that
changed
the
law
of
the
code
from
you
know,
a
small
step
back
to
we
need
bigger
setback
for,
and
everything
was
built
with
a
code,
and
I
think
it's
not
going
to
affect
the
neighbor
like
right,
close
to
the
property.
E
Wall,
mario
pettis
mackel
from
the
city
attorney's
office,
miss
barnes.
Can
you
just
confirm
for
the
board
that
the
addition
that
was
built
was
it
built
without
permits.
F
That
is
correct,
so
there
is
a
current
code
case:
20
cod
20
965
construction
without
proper
permits.
I
am
unaware
about
if
it
was
open
prior
or
not-
I
don't
know,
but
I
just
know
it
was
cited
for
construction
without
proper
permit.
B
H
H
Of
course,
if
you're
granting
the
variant
I'll
be
able
to
get
the
permit
and
proceed,
you
know
with
all
the
requirements
we
need
for
approve
this
construction
that
is
already
built.
A
Okay,
do
you
have
anything
else
to
present
to
us
this
evening.
H
A
All
right:
well,
let's
go
ahead
and
see
if
anyone
in
the
audience
wishes
to
speak
about
this
application.
Is
there
anyone
in
the
audience
who
wishes
to
speak
about
this
application
all
right,
seeing
none,
I'm
going
to
go
ahead
and
open
it
up
for
board
questions.
D
I
have
a
question
so
notwithstanding
the
fact
that
a
portion
of
the
property
has
already
been
constructed
or
a
portion
of,
I
guess
and
the
addition
has
already
been
constructed.
Would
it
be
possible,
based
on
the
layout
of
the
property,
to
you
know,
construct
the
additional
rooms
like
behind
the
property?
It
looks
like
there's,
you
know
some
quite
a
bit
of
room
in
the
backyard.
Is
that
possible.
H
H
Well,
I
think
we
we
had
been,
you
know,
since
we
applied
for
this
about
a
year,
no
longer.
H
A
Can
you
show
us,
I
see
some
some
drawings
here?
Could
you
show
us
where,
on
these
drawings,
the
the
property
is
budding
and
going
over
at
which
just
point
on
those
drawings
to.
H
Okay,
it's
going
to
be
on
the
left
side
of
this
property.
A
A
A
H
A
Is
that
the
side?
That's
being
impacted?
Yes,
okay,
so
what
you're
doing
the
the
two
feet
it
lines
up
with
the
driveway,
because
that
used
to
be
a
carport.
You
said.
A
E
I'm
sorry,
I'm
sorry
just
can
you
do
you
have
any
documentation
from
the
city
attorney's
office?
Is
there
any
documentation
other
than
the
completed
site
plan
of
the
work
that
was
already
completed,
of
where
the
carport
went.
H
A
Well,
if
we
look
at,
if
we
look
at
the
property,
appraiser's
information,
that's
there
does
that
tell
us
if
there
was
a
carport
there
or
not.
A
H
A
So
is
it
true,
then,
that
you
that
this
extension
up
into
the
carport
and
the
enclosure
of
the
carport
maintains
the
existing
wall
in
the
same
location
as
it
is
down
below
there
right?
It
says
existing
kitchen.
E
Miss
barnes:
can
you
just
verify
that,
on
the
setbacks
that
are
on
the
on
this
image,
that's
before
the
board
right
now.
F
Annie
barnes
or
anastasia
barnes,
so
I
have
zoomed
in
on
part
of
the.
F
Building
permits,
so
this
was
the
existing
with
the
carport
at
12
feet
from
the
property
line
or
from
the
existing
residence
to
the
east.
F
A
Okay,
so
you're
you're
on
the
web
you're
all
right,
that's
not
helpful.
You're
you're
you,
your
zoom
in
on
this
picture,
was
helpful.
Miss
barnes,
thank
you.
Okay,
so
we
have
a.
We
have
an
existing
covered
car
port
that
is
there,
but
that
does
that
did
not
comport
with
the
prior
setback
issue.
It's
it's
the
enclosure
of
that
carport
that
has
triggered
this
issue.
A
All
right,
you
have,
you
have
three
minutes.
If
there's
anything
you
want
to
address
in
response
to
the
questions
we've
raised
or
any
of
the
issues
that
we've
raised.
A
No
okay!
Well
with
that,
then
I
will
open
it
up
for
motion
or
board
discussion,
close
the
public
hearing
and
open
it
up
for
a
motion
or
board
discussion.
C
E
A
A
I
I
It
may
have
been
built
in
the
same
footprint,
but
traditionally
you
know
carports
don't
have
the
same
type
of
roof
as
a
home,
and
so
there's
not
a
lot
of
information
here,
but
either
way
the
the
plans
don't
seem
to
match
up
as
an
exact
footprint
replacement.
In
my
opinion,
however,
the
testimony
we
heard
is
that
it
was
a
carport
that
was
enclosed.
Okay,.
E
A
Okay,
all
right!
Well,
all
those
in
favor
of
the
motion,
as
stated
say:
aye,
all
those
posed
say:
hi.
C
B
E
E
B
When
considering
the
five
hardship
criteria
set
forth
in
section
27
of
the
city
code,
specifically
that
the
there
was
an
existing
covered,
but
not
enclosed
carport
and
the
applicant
enclosed
the
carport,
causing
the.
What
do
I
want
to
say,
the
need
for
the
variance
the
location
of
the
carport
has
not
been
changed.
H
A
Okay,
we
have
a
motion
to
approve
by
miss

Do
we
have
a
second.
A
All
right,

those
in
favor
say
aye.
B
B
A
Okay,
all
right,
okay,
all
right!
Your
motion
has
your
application
has
been
denied.
You
have
the
ability
to
appeal
to
city
council,
and
you
can
do
that
within
10
days
of
the
issuance
of
the

A
Okay,
miss
barnes.
Should

swear
these
folks
in
first.
A
A
If
you
have,
if
there's
a
chance,
you've
been
minut
that
you
might
be
speaking
this
evening
or
providing
testimony.
Please
stand
and
be
sworn
now.
Okay,.
F
Good
evening,
anastasia
barnes,
the
next
case
before
you
is
vrb
2157.
Regarding
3906
west
swann
avenue,
the
zoning
is
rs
60
and
the
request
is
to
reduce
the
side.
West
yard
setback
from
five
feet
to
two
feet
and
reduce
the
rear
yard
setback
from
11
feet
to
7
feet
in
accordance
with
section
27
290.5
to
construct
a
21
foot
tall
pool
screen,
enclosure.
F
F
A
With
the
applicant
come
on
up
and
state
your
name,
your
address
and
confirm
that
you've
been
sworn
this
evening.
K
K
You
very
much
so,
as
I
said,
my
name
is
steve
rothwell.
I
I
moved
over
here
about
seven
years
ago
with
my
company
and
I'm
actually
from
england
and
one
of
the
most
the
priorities
I
asked
for
was
to
have
a
pool
within
our
house
to
to
obviously
enjoy
the
tampa
weather.
We
did
actually
purchase
that
house
and
that's
an
established
pool
that
was
actually
existing.
K
However,
one
of
the
challenges
that
we've
now
learnt
obviously,
is
that
this
did
not
actually
allow
or
consider
the
building
of
a
pool
cage.
So
what
we're
looking
to
do
is
apply
for
a
setback
both
on
the
west
side
and
on
the
rear
to
accommodate
a
a
new
pool
enclosure
the
to,
as
you
can
see,
from
from
the
photos.
K
We
live
in
a
neighborhood
that
obviously
lots
of
people
have
those
pools
and
one
of
the
challenges
we
do
and
part
of
the
hardships
that
we
have
and
there's
a
number
of
them
is
that
we
do
have
a
challenge
with
obviously
some
of
the
mosquitoes,
and
that
really
does
reduce
the
opportunity
to
enjoy
the
great
weather
and
and
the
pool
itself,
and
also
many
of
the
africa
and
the
neighborhood
have
actually
got
the
screening
closures.
K
So
it's
really
consistent
with
what's
actually
happening
with
with
the
the
existing
neighbors
and
two
of
our
adjacent
neighbors
have
pools.
Pool
cages,
one
as
you
can
see
from
one
of
the
photos
is,
is
a
similar
nature
in
terms
of
a
double
story
and
another
one
is
a
single
story.
K
As
I
said
from
a
from
a
hardship
point
of
view,
you
know
we
thoroughly
do
enjoy
the
the
pool
and
my
wife
and
I,
but
obviously
you
know
if
you
think
about
what's
happened
over
the
last
12
or
18
months,
utilizing
that
space
has
been
even
more
critical
and
obviously
vital
from
both
of
my
health
and
and
you
know
a
mental
point
of
view,
but
that
really
has
been
reduced
because
of
some
of
the
challenges
with
the
mosquitoes
and
in
addition,
obviously,
if
you
think
about
you
know,
there
is
a
lot
of
greenery,
which
is
fantastic
in
the
area,
and
we
also
have
challenges,
obviously
with
maintaining
that
pool,
because
obviously
a
lot
of
leaf
drops
and
we're,
seeing
that
the
pool
cage
will
also
support
and
and
help
in
that.
K
So
I
I,
I
guess,
that's
really
the
kind
of
the
the
key
things
I'd
like
to
kind
of
state.
At
this
point.
A
A
All
right,
I
will
ask,
is
there
anyone
in
the
audience
who
wishes
to
speak
about
this
application,
seeing
none?
I
will
open
it
up
for
board
questions
to
the
applicant
or
staff
pastor.
I
There
it
is
okay,
so
are
you
proposing
to
expand
the
pavers
to
match
that
footprint
of
the
screen
there.
K
K
In
terms
of
the
greeny
that
actually,
on
the
left
hand
side
that
below
that
the
the
pool
area,
that's
all
greenery
on
the
right-hand
side
of
the
house-
that's
all
greenery.
K
D
You
put
it
in
your
application,
but
just
so
that
we
have
it
on
the
record
on
the
next
door.
Neighbor
to
your.
If
you're
looking
at
this
on
site
plan
to
the
left
is
the
sister
of
the
person
who
you
purchased
the
house
from
and
who
installed
the
pool
so
correct:
okay,
okay,.
K
K
You
know
it's
an
issue
that
we
that
we
all
face,
they
don't
have
a
pool,
so
they
don't
see
it
as
big
an
issue.
Okay,
thanks.
A
Okay,
any
other
questions.
No,
all
right!
You
have
three
minutes.
If
you
have
anything
further
that
you
want
to
address.
A
All
right:
well,
then,
I
will
close
the
public
hearing
and
open
up
for
board
motion
or
discussion
necessary.
Mr
pastor.
I
When
considering
the
five
hardship
criteria
set
forth
in
section
2780
of
the
city
code,
specifically
that
this
pool
is
existing
when
they
purchase
the
property.
There's
some
practical
issues
with
leaves
and
mosquitoes
that
like
to
enclose
that
several
of
the
immediate
neighbors
have
similarly
sized
enclosures,
and
this
was
not
created
by
the
applicant.
B
F
A
Miss
barnes,
I
do
have
a
question
for
you.
Is
there
a
definition
of
the
of
the
term
rv
in
the
code.
A
All
right,
thank
you.
All
right
is
the
applicant
here
all
right
come
on
up.
You
have
10
minutes.
Why
don't
you
state
your
name,
your
address
and
please
confirm
that
you've
been
struggling.
L
The
hardship
for
us
is
that
we
live
in
a
town
home
and
I
had
prematurely,
I
guess,
built
a
brick
paver
pad
on
the
side
of
my
home
and
because
of
the
code,
we're
not
able
to
bring
the
trailer
down
the
side
of
the
home
or
or
park
the
the
rv
trailer
in
the
back
of
the
home
due
to
being
a
town
home.
I
know
there
was
one
question
in
the
application
whether
or
not
there
was
a
homeowners
association.
L
L
And
yes,
that
is
the
the
totality
of
our
hardship.
Is
that
there's
no
ingress
or
egress
of
the
trailer
to
the
side
of
the
home
or
the
rear
of
the
home
to
park
it
other
otherwise
and
pending
any
further
questions
I'll
yield.
My
time
back
to
the
council.
A
A
So
if
that
completes
your
presentation,
yes,
sir,
all
right,
I
will
ask
if
there
are
any
anyone
in
the
audience
who
would
like
to
speak
on
this
application
for
or
against
all
right
come
on
up.
If
you
could
step
aside,
sir,
of
course,
state
your
name,
your
address
and
confirm
that
you've
been
sworn
please
good.
B
You
myself,
my
wife,
are
the
abutting
neighbors
and
we
are
absolutely
opposed
as
variants
as
our
many
closely
located
neighbors
in
the
immediate
area.
Here
are
the
reasons
why,
first
of
all,
in
our
opinion,
from
living
right
next
door,
what
has
been
presented
in
the
written
application
as
a
recreational
trailer
by
the
app
gun
is
not
correct.
It
is
a
work
trailer.
B
It
does
not
appear
to
be
any
kind
of
recreational
trailer
stating
the
application.
It's
clear
to
us
why
the
applicant
presented
in
this
way
this
application,
that's
because
the
code
only
allows
vehicles
or
crafts
to
be
parked
in
the
front
yard.
This
is
not
a
vehicle
is
not
a
recreational
vehicle;
it
does
not
have
an
engine,
it
does
not
have
passenger
carrying
ability,
no
steering
wheel,
etc.
B
It
was
written
up
by
the
applicant
to
morph
it
and
his
effort
to
try
and
make
it
look
like
it
met
the
intent
of
the
code,
but
it
does
not
congrats
to
criteria
number
one
hardship
or
practical
difficulty.
There
isn't
on
the
driveway
and
home
and
their
placement
cited
in
the
exact
same
as
all
others.
In
the
abutting
immediate
area,
these
are
tightly
fitted.
Homes.
B
B
I'm
sorry
criteria
number
two,
the
variance
completely
self-created
the
applicant
knew
that
his
permission
on
allowable
on
the
property
knew
that
he
was
buying
built.
An
additional
pad
now
seeks
the
board
to
fix
his
self-created
problems,
regardless
criteria
number
three,
the
trailer
is
unsightly.
It
imposes
on
our
properties,
not
in
conformance
with
the
purposes
of
a
driveway
storing
vehicles
in
regard
to
criteria
number
four:
the
variance
is
not
in
harmony
with
the
code
nor
meets
the
intent
of
the
code.
As
I
stated
is
not
a
vehicle
or
crap.
A
Can
you
can
raise
that
up.
B
A
A
All
right
seeing
none,
I
will
open
it
up
for
board
questions
for
the
applicant
or
staff
or
anyone
else
in
the
audience,
and
we
have
any
questions.
L
D
I
have
a
question
for
staff.
Can
you
tell
us
what
the
I
know
you
we
talked
about
this
already,
but
can
you
remind
us
what
the
definition
of
a
recreational
vehicle
is.
F
Sure
so,
annie
barnes
or
anastasia
barnes.
So
I
did
confirm
with
the
zoning
administrator
that
the
rv
that
this
would
fit
the
definition
of
a
recreational
vehicle,
recreational
vehicle
and
equipment
is
vehicle
or
equipment
designed
and
built
for
recreational
purposes
such
as
camping
boating
and
off-roading.
Sports.
Recreational
vehicles
and
equipment
include,
but
are
not
limited
to
truck
campers
golf
carts,
dirt,
bikes,
pleasure
craft
motor
homes,
travel
trailers
and
converted
buses.
D
F
That
was
the
zoning
administrator's
decision.
A
You
will
absolutely
have
a
chance
to
talk
about
that
in
a
moment.
So
what
is
what
is
a
travel
trailer,
because
I
heard
that
in
there
was
it
a
is
that
one
other.
A
Is
there
a
definition
I
should
say?
Is
there
a
definition
in
the
code
of
of
any
of
those
components.
F
B
F
Definition
for
travel
trailer,
let's
see
the
trailers.
A
A
Okay,
all
right
any
other
questions
from
the
board
for
staff
or
for
the
applicant
or
for
anyone
in
the
audience.
A
Okay,
any
other
questions
all
right.
You
have
three
minutes
to
rebut
or
address
any
other
issues
that
we
raised
or
that
were
raised
by
others.
I.
A
All
right
well,
in
that
case
I
will
close
the
public
hearing
and
open
it
up
for
a
motion
or
board
discussion.
Does
anyone
have
a
motion.
B
I
I
move
that
the
variance
requests
for
case
vrb216
for
the
property
located
at
4859
west
prescott
street,
for
the
allowance
of
an
rv
to
be
parked
in
the
front
yard,
be
denied
due
to
the
failure
of
the
petitioner
to
meet
that
burden
of
proof
to
provide
competent,
substantial
evidence
of
the
record
of
this
public
hearing
of
an
unnecessary
hardship
of
practical
difficulty.
When
considering
the
five
hardship
criteria
is
set
forth
in
section
2780
of
the
city
code.
I
A
Motion
a
second
by
miss
long,
all
right,
all
those
in
favor
of
the
motion
aye,
all
those
opposed
hey.
This
is
your
application-
is
denied
4-1.
E
Note
2170
is
not
being
hurt.
The
next
case.
A
Oh,
apologies,
I'm
sorry
and
2183
is
continued,
so
21
80
is
continued,
got
it.
Okay,
2183.
F
F
I
E
From
the
city
attorney's
office,
can
you
please
see
it
on
the
record
and
then
give
you
the
form
to
fill.
L
F
So
this
is
one
of
the
proposed
signs
as
part
of
that
sign
package
and
as
part
of
this
application,
these
this
is
a
site
plan
provided
showing
the
exists,
some
of
the
existing
signs
and
the
proposed
sign
location
as
well
as
some.
A
All
right,
thank
you
very
much
applicant
come
on
up
state,
your
name,
your
address
and
please
confirm
that
you've
been
sworn.
M
M
Okay,
I
just
want
to
start.
I
want
to
describe
the
variance
a
little
bit
more
we're
seeking
the
variance
to
locate
newly
constructed
ground-mounted
signage
within
the
five-foot
property
line,
setback
due
to
established
trees
and
the
proximity
of
a
building
currently
existing
along
west
de
leon
street.
That
is
part
of
the
hospital
facility.
It
would
be
impossible
to
relocate
signs
of
similar
size
and
quality
that
currently
exist
beyond
the
five
foot
setback
required
by
the
code.
M
Memorial
hospital
of
tampa
has
requested
that
their
existing
signs
be
updated
to
reflect
the
new
brand
standard
by
their
parent
company
hca.
To
do
so,
ground
mounted
signs
would
need
to
be
demolished
and
rebuilt
upon
inspecting
the
existing
signs.
It
was
discovered
that
all
of
the
ground
mounted
building
signs
were
either
located
outside
of
the
facility's
current
property
line
or
within
the
five-foot
required
setback.
M
M
A
Okay.
Well.
That
concludes
your
presentation.
I
will
invite
any
members
of
the
public
wishing
to
speak
on
this
application.
Is
there
anyone
in
the
audience
wishing
to
speak,
seeing
none.
Does
the
board
have
any
questions
for
the
applicant.
D
M
As
part
of
the
facility's
new
brand
standard
and
again
under
direction
of
the
parent
company
hca,
they
are
seeking
to
unify
their
existing
campuses
across
much
of
the
southeast
and
throughout
the
united
states
with
a
unified
look,
the
design
of
the
sign
has
been
orchestrated
by
that
company
and
we're
seeking
to
carry
it
out.
The
signs
are
of
similar
size
to
the
existing
sign
and
then
would
also
comply
with
lighting
or
other
permit
requirements,
as
set
forth
to
approve
a
sign
through
the
permitting
process.
D
M
That
the
sign
actually
sits
on
it
would
not
use
the
existing.
No,
we
would
fully
demolish
and
then
reinstall
a
new
base
again
of
similar
size.
D
Okay-
and
so
you
mentioned
a
couple
times-
the
property
lines
are
these
located
within
the
property.
The.
M
D
M
M
And
just
to
be
very
clear,
one
of
the
signs
we
believe
does
exist
on
the
prosperity
up
against
the
property
line.
Moving
it
farther
back
onto
the
property
for
the
five
foot,
setback
would
for
sure
compromise
one
of
the
trees.
So
one
of
the
signs
it
would
be
in
the
exact
same
location,
but
would
have
a
new
footing.
New
foundation.
D
Okay,
and
so
so
aside
from
saving
the
trees,
it
is
there
any
sort
of
visibility.
Consideration
I
mean.
M
So,
yes,
let
me
find
one
more
additional.
M
M
M
One
of
the
other
signs
exists
currently
at
a
four-way
stop.
You
can
see
here.
The
current
sign
exists
outside
of
the
property
line,
but
is
not
within
the
view
triangle
at
the
four-way
stop.
The
proposed
location
would
be
actually
across
the
sidewalk
within
that
five
foot
setback.
This
one
in
particular,
is
due
to
an
existing
building
on
the
site
that
was
constructed
prior
to
this
variance
request.
M
Additionally,
there
could
be
complications
with
visibility
if
that
sign
were
to
be
moved
farther
away
from
the
street
more
closer
to
the
building
and
possibly
impacting
existing
footing
and
again.
The
third
sign:
this
is
the
location
that
we
believe
is
currently
on
the
property,
but
moving
it
farther
to
the
lower
edge
of
this
diagram
would,
we
believe,
severely
impact
the
existing
tree
by
putting
the
footing
in
the
ground
there.
Okay,.
A
D
I
move
that
the
variance
request
for
case
brb
21-83
for
property,
located
at
2901
west
swan
avenue
be
granted
as
depicted
on
the
site
plan
presented
at
the
public
hearing
for
a
reduction
of
the
required
setback
from
five
feet
to
zero
feet
for
three
freestanding
signs
based
on
the
applicant
presenting
competent
and
substantial
evidence
in
the
record
and
at
this
public
hearing
of
an
unnecessary
hardship
or
practical
difficulty.
When
considering
the
five
hardship
criteria
set
forth
in
section
27-80
of
the
city
code.
Specifically
that.
D
A
F
F
The
request
is
to
reduce
the
rear
yard
setback
from
eight
feet
to
three
feet
and
reduce
the
east
side:
yard
setback
from
five
feet
to
three
feet:
to
construct
a
screening
closure
eighteen
feet,
six
inches
in
height
in
accordance
with
section
twenty
seven.
Two.
Ninety
point:
five:
this
is
the
subject:
property
with
surrounding
zoning
residential
in
nature.
F
A
All
right
applicant
come
on
forward
state
your
name,
your
address
and
confirm
that
you've
been
sworn.
N
A
F
A
Terrific,
you
have
10
minutes
to
present
your
hardships.
N
Thank
you
very
much
good
evening.
Again
everybody,
as
you
heard,
our
request,
is
to
reduce
the
setback
on
both
the
north
and
the
east
sides
of
our
property,
as
you
may
have
seen
from
the
photographs
that
were
put
up
on
the
north
side
of
our
property.
There
is
a
garage
there
that
kind
of
comes
up
against
the
fence
already
as
it
is
anyway.
I
know
we
know
the
owner
of
that
property.
N
He
has
no
problem
with
the
enclosure
and
then
to
the
east
side
of
our
property.
Are
our
friends.
You
can
see
that
they
have
built
a
gazebo
or
I
don't
know
what
you
would
call
that
structure
there
and
that
comes
right
up
against
the
property
line
as
well.
The
reason
why
there
is
a
hardship
here
for
us
is:
we've
lived
in
that
house
for
approximately
nine
years
the
pool
already
existed
when
we
bought
it
we'd
love
to
have
in
the
pool.
Since
the
time
we
bought
the
house,
we've
had
two
kids.
N
We
have
a
one
now,
an
eight-year-old
boy
and
a
six-year-old
girl
at
the
time
that
we
filed
for
this
variance.
They
were
seven
and
five,
so
they
both
had
a
birthday
in
the
past
month.
At
the
time
that
we
bought
the
house,
there
was
no
enclosure,
but
the
pool
was
already
there
if
we
were
to
put
in
an
enclosure.
N
We've
lived
there
for,
as
I
said
nine
years
and
haven't
really
had
the
need,
in
our
view,
to
put
an
enclosure,
although
one
would
be
nice
until
the
past
year,
or
so.
You
can't
see
from
this
picture,
but
the
the
gentleman
also
named
eric
who
lives
behind
us
so
to
the
north
has
a
pretty
you
see
it.
There
has
a
pretty
overgrown
on
purpose
backyard.
N
He
likes
the
privacy.
He
says
he
thinks
it
helps
protect
him
from
hurricanes
et
cetera,
et
cetera,
but
he
has
lots
of
critters
that
live
in
his
backyard
and
over
the
years
we
get
the
occasional
critter
a
snake
in
the
pool
here,
and
there
rats
come
under
the
fence,
the
occasional
raccoon
or
possum,
but
in
the
past
year,
at
a
time
when,
frankly,
we'd
want
to
use
the
pool
all
the
time
the
raccoon
population
coming
from
his
backyard
has
increased
dramatically.
I
shouldn't
say
from
his
backyard.
N
I
know
they
go
to
his
backyard
a
lot
and
some
of
you
may
be
aware.
I
don't
know
if
this
has
come
up
at
these
hearings
before
but
raccoons
like
to
go
in
pools
and
as
you
can
see,
we
have
a
little
sun
shelf
in
the
shallow
end
of
the
pool,
which
was
great
when
the
kids
were
babies,
the
raccoons
use
that
to
play
and
clean
off
and
defecate.
N
We
have
some
videos
of
that
from
our
outdoor
cameras.
But
what
I
found
out-
and
I
didn't
know
this
until
this
past
summer-
is
that
the
the
defecation
from
the
raccoons,
in
addition
to
being
obviously
gross
it-
requires
a
lot
of
effort
and
time
to
clean
it
up,
and
you
can't
get
back
in
the
pool
for
two
days
after
they
do
it
and
at
one
point
over
the
summer
they
were
doing
it
every
single
night.
N
So
we
had
a
couple
months
over
the
summer
we
couldn't
use
the
pool
at
all,
so
that
created,
in
my
view,
a
difficulty
for
for
our
family
in
terms
of
being
able
to
use
or
enjoy
our
backyard.
I
did
hear
from
someone
earlier
tonight
vrv2157
who
discussed
mosquitoes.
N
I
also
have
some
issues
with
mosquitoes,
but
that's
not
something
that
that
rose
to
the
level
of
us
wanting
to
put
a
screen
enclosure
in.
But
this
issue
with
the
raccoons
has
become
a
major
issue.
The
raccoon's
defecating,
the
pool,
is
something
that
the
cdc
says
can
cause
a
significant
neurological
injury
specifically
in
children,
and
obviously
we
have
small
kids
and
all
of
our
neighbors
have
small
kids
who
want
to
use
the
pool.
So
that's
something
we'd
like
to
deal
with
and
address
and
the
big
way
of
doing
that
would
be
this
enclosure.
N
We
have
hired
trappers,
they
have
just
this
past
summer,
caught
seven
raccoons,
two
possums
a
number
of
feral
cats
and
the
raccoons
still
come.
I
do
want
to
show
you
a
video
that
one
of
the
cameras
caught
from
the
side
yard-
and
I
have
other
pictures
too,
but
I'll
just
start
with
this
one.
Let's
see,
let
me
see
if
I
saw
you
do
this
earlier
doc
cam
there
we
go
see.
If
I
can
do
this.
N
M
N
Seven,
I
think
one
two
three
four
five,
six,
so
six
six
raccoons
and
that's
on
the
side
of
the
house-
that's
not
at
the
pool,
but
they
come
up
the
side
of
the
house
and
crawl
under
the
fence,
or
sometimes
they
climb
over
the
top
of
the
fence.
And
then
they
go
behind
us
to
the
property
behind
us,
but
on
their
way
they
make
a
pit
stop
in
our
pool
and
do
their
business.
And
then
my
wife
have
to
clean
it
and
not
use
it
for
a
significant
period
of
time.
N
So,
from
our
perspective,
the
the
hardship
that
was
not
created
by
us
is
that
the
pool
was
put
in
and
the
cage
wasn't
put
over
it
at
that
time.
And
so,
if
we
were
to
try
to
put
a
cage
in
now,
we
would
not
be
able
to
without
going
to
the
pool
that.
N
Thus
we
need
to
ask
for
the
variance
the
unique
problem
to
us
is
the
raccoon
problem
and
some
of
the
other
issues
that
I've
already
set
forth
for
you
in
terms
of
a
few
other
additional
points,
I'd
like
to
make
the
3600
block
of
san
pedro.
We
know
a
lot
of
the
people
on
that
street.
I
know
of
three
other
pool
enclosures
on
that
block
that
have
requested
variances
down
to
three
feet
and
have
been
granted.
N
There
are
a
couple
other
pools
that
don't
have
cages,
so
I
want
to
make
sure
I
say
that
as
well
and
then
something
I
found
out
today,
which
I
didn't
even
know
had
happened
when
I
went
to
print
out
our
application
to
look
at
it
before
we
came
to
see
you
guys
today.
I
saw
that
our
neighbors
pam
and
dave
who
live
across
the
street
from
us,
I
guess,
sent
in
a
letter
or
a
note
where
they,
where
they
essentially
said
as
neighbors
living
across
the
street.
N
From
from
us,
we
wholeheartedly
support
eric
and
megan's
request
for
a
variance
regarding
their
proposed
pool
enclosure,
which
would
reduce
the
rear
setback
from
eight
to
three
and
side
set
back
from
five
to
three.
Their
icum
population
in
the
neighborhood
has
been
a
problem
for
years,
despite
periodically
having
the
animals
trapped
and
relocated.
We've
lost
fish
from
our
backyard
pond
and
fruit
from
our
fruit
trees
to
the
raccoons,
but
I
have
not
had
to
deal
with
raccoons
defecating
in
a
pool.
N
It
makes
perfect
sense
to
erect
a
pool
enclosure
to
keep
the
raccoons
out
of
the
pool
for
sanitary
reasons
and
also
eliminate
an
attractive
site
for
them
to
congregate.
Since
there
is
insufficient
space
to
place
a
pool
anyway,
they
basically
are
supporting
us,
which
I
didn't
even
know
they
had
done.
So
I
probably
need
to
go.
Thank
them
when
we
get
home
tonight,
but
in
any
event,
that
sort
of
concludes
my
initial
presentation.
N
Actually,
I
do
want
to
say
one
other
thing
and
that
same
presentation
from
earlier
on,
vrb
2157,
mr
pasteur.
I
believe
you
asked
the
applicant
about
the
the
pavers
and
I
just
thought
I'd
get
out
in
front
of
it
and
address
that
our
pool
enclosure
would
actually
reduce
the
pavers.
N
We
would
have
to
pick
up
pick
up
those
three
feet
of
pavers
on
on
both
sides
of
the
pool
to
put
the
enclosure
in
so
it
would
actually
be
reduced,
not
not
added
to,
in
our
yard,
honey
anything
else,
yeah
check
with
the
boss.
So
I'm
with
that
I'll.
I
guess
proceed
to
comments
from
the
from
the
gallery.
A
Well.
That
concludes
your
presentation.
I
will
ask:
is
there
anyone
in
the
audience
who
wishes
to
speak
about
this
application,
seeing
none?
I
will
open
it
up
to
the
board
for
questions.
Does
the
board
have
any
questions.
A
All
right,
sir!
Well
with
that,
I
will
close
the
public
hearing
and
open
it
up
for
motion
from
the
board.
I
I
moved
the
variance
request
for
case
vr
b
2190
property
located
at

west
palmer

pedro
street,
be
granted
depicted
on
the

plan
and
presented
the
public
hearing
for
construction
of
a
screen
enclosure
based
on
the
applicant
presenting
confident,
substantial
evidence
in
the
record
at
this
public
hearing
of
a
necessary
hardship
for
practical
difficulty.
I
When
considering
the
five
hardship
criteria
set
forth
in
section
2780
of
the
city
code,
specifically
that
this
was
an
existing
pool
they're
having
significant
documented
animal
issues,
the
surrounding
neighbors
are
okay
with
this
and
support
it.
There
are
similar
conditions
elsewhere
in
the
neighborhood
and
it
was
not
self-created
right.
F
F
Anastasia
barns,
the
next
case
before
you
is
vrb

for
the
location
at
4212,
west

the

Section.
2780
application
of
the
variance
power
and
staff
is
available
for
any
questions.
You
may
have.
J
Thank
you
as
noted
we
myself
and
my
wife
jenna,
who
is
also
president
of
the
back.
We
have
two
young
children.
One
is
one
years
old.
One
is
three:
we
have
a
pool
in
the
backyard
and
we
are
trying
to
construct
a
cabana
or
just
a
covered
structure
to
allow
us
to
have
some
shaded
areas
in
the
backyard.
J
I
understand
that
it
is.
We
must
comply
with
2780
and
set
forth
our
practical
difficulties
and
unnecessary
hardships
which
are
set
forth
in
the
five
criteria
provided
in
the
section
first
off.
The
uniqueness
of
our
situation
is
that,
as
I
indicated,
we
have
two
young
children.
J
We
have
nearly
no
shade,
except
for
a
very
limited
time
period
in
the
during
the
morning
hours
in
the
south
eastern
corner
of
our
of
our
lot.
J
However,
given
our
schedules,
we
usually
would
use
the
out
the
backyard
during
the
afternoon
hours
and
essentially
even
mid-morning.
It
is
just
blazing
hot
there's
no
shade
and
we
have
no
covered
area
to
sit
most
of
the
homes
in
our
neighborhood
have
a
back
patio,
some
of
which
are
screened
in
some
aren't,
but
most
of
them
have
a
back
patio
area
in
which
to
sit.
We
do
not
have
that.
J
J
There
was
I
provided
in
the
submission
of
exhibits,
I
believe
exhibit
six
indicates
the
front
northwest
side
of
our
lot
does
have
a
little
bit
of
shade
in
the
front
yard,
but
given
the
ages
of
of
our
children,
it's
just
it
is
dangerous.
We
have
to
be
sitting
there.
Essentially
one
of
us
would
have
to
sit
almost
at
the
end
of
the
driveway
to
make
sure
our
son
doesn't
run
out
into
the
yard,
because
the
backyard
is
just
is
just
it's
unusable.
J
Also,
neither
the
lack
of
shade
and
lack
of
heat
protection,
nor
the
mosquito
issue
is
something
that
we
can
control.
As
I
just
mentioned,
we've
done
everything
we
could
to
remedy
the
mosquito
situation
and
we're
trying
to
remedy
the
shade
and
heat
situation
by
constructing
an
outdoor
area
that
we
can
all
enjoy
and
sit
under
and
congregate.
J
However,
again,
if
it's
once
it's
in
the
summertime,
we
just,
we
can't
do
it
and
it's
and
therefore
we
can't
enjoy
the
whole
family
outside
there's
no
interference
with
any
of
the
others.
We
are
seeking
to
reduce
the
the
distance
not
to
go
closer
to
anyone
else's
property,
but
to
come
closer
to
our
own
house.
J
J
Finally,
the
substantial
justice
being
done.
It
would
be
our
contention
that
this
will
not
have
any
impact
on
any
of
the
neighbors
or
the
surrounding
properties
or
the
public
in
general,
as
we
are
just
trying
to
come
closer
to
our
our
own
home,
whereas
on
the
flip
side
by
you
all
granting
our
variance
requests.
J
A
All
right,
thank
you.
Is
there
anyone
in
the
audience
who
wishes
to
speak
on
this
application
all
right,
seeing
none
does
the
board
any
have
any
questions
for
the
applicant.
J
We're
not
screening
the
pool
we
have.
I
actually
consulted
with
one
of
the
individuals,
that's
helping
us
with
the
project
this
weekend
and
he
has
suggested
having
outdoor
curtains
on
the
open
areas
of
the
of
the
proposed
structure
to
further.
We
also
are
planning
on
putting
fans
underneath
there,
which,
frankly,
that's
the
only
thing
that
kind
of
remedies
the
situation
is.
If
you
have
a
fan
right
on
top
of
you,
but
again
you
can't
have
fans
for
all
four
of.
H
J
Especially
with
the
kill
with
the
children
running
around,
so
we
are
not
planning
on
on
a
screen,
but
we
are
planning
on
putting
outdoor
curtains
so
that
we
can
close
them
and
to
with
the
fans,
hopefully
alleviate
the
mosquito
situation.
I
Gonna
build
a
pool
right
with
no
screen,
and
then
you
know
come
back
here
in
a
couple
years
and
ask
for
a
screen
with
my
guess,
so
not
that
we
can
do
anything
about
that
tonight.
I'm
just
saying
it
seems
odd
not
to
build
one.
J
J
We
also
wanted
it
to
be
when
they're
older
we'd
like
to
be
able
to
have
both
a
a
sitting
a
table
so
that
we
can
enjoy
outdoor
dinners,
as
well
as
a
sitting
area
to
sit
there
and
watch
tv.
So
that's
what
the
basis
of
why
we
went
so
so
wide.
We
also
can't
extend
it
any
further
to
the
west
because
of
the
fact
that
our
pool
is
right
there,
and
so
we
have
gone
as
far
as
we
can.
I
I
believe
we're
at
5.6
feet
from
the
water's
edge.
J
E
B
A
Okay,
any
other
questions
for
the
applicant.
I
J
I
J
A
All
right,
if
there
are
no
other
questions,
you
have
three
minutes
for
a
bottle.
A
I
You
that's
very
outwardly
aggressive.
I
moved
the
variance
request
for
case
vrb
2190
again
for
property
located
at
4212.
West
palmyra
avenue,
as
depict
on
the
site
plan,
presented
the
public
hearing
for
reduction
in
separation
of
buildings
from
ten
feet
to
three
feet:
an
encroachment
for
using
gutters
with
the
following
condition
that
it
never
be
enclosed.
I
That
subveriance
has
conditioned
be
granted
based
upon
the
applicant
presenting
competent,
substantial
evidence
in
the
record
at
this
public
hearing
of
a
necessary
hardship
for
practical
difficulty.
When
considering
the
five
hardship
criteria
set
forth
in
section
2780
of
the
city
code,
specifically
that
there
are
practical
issues
with
the
enjoyment
of
the
property
due
to
lack
of
shade
and
presence
of
bugs
and
that
they
are
maintaining
the
side
and
rear
yard
setbacks,
which
would
most
encroach
upon
their
neighbors
and
instead
taking
the
encroachment
internal
to
the
property
so
as
not
to
affect
the.
D
A
F
Good
evening,
anastasia
barnes,
the
next
case
before
you
is
vrb
2192,
the
property
address
is
3005
west
san
miguel
street.
The
zoning
is
rs
50
residential
single
family
and
the
request
is
to
reduce
the
front
yard
setback
from
twenty
feet
to
nine
feet.
Two
inches
produce
the
side:
east
yard,
setback
from
seven
feet.
Six
feet
reduce
the
side,
yard
west
setback
from
seven
feet
to
three
feet
and
reduce
the
rear
yard
setback
from
20
feet
to
17
feet.
F
F
A
O
O
O
O
I
have
a
four
and
a
half
year
old
son,
and
perhaps
we
would
like
to
have
another
child
in
the
near
future
with
these
enhancements.
We
would
like
to
we
like.
I
said
we're
improving
the
house,
we're
not
trying
to
make
it
any
worse
and
we're
also.
We
would
maintain
the
architectural
acumen
or
texture
of
the
surrounding
neighborhood
there
in
palmasa,
and
we
are
not
encroaching
on
any
property
lines
of
whatsoever
of
our
neighbors.
O
In
fact,
we've
heard
from
several
surrounding
neighbors
that
are
in
support
of
this
variance,
and
we
are
also
making
sure
that
we're
not
cutting
down
any
trees
for
this
as
well,
because
in
the
back,
where
most
of
the
addition
is
going
to
be
is
an
existing
porch
that
we
have
and
we're
just
replacing
that,
and
that
is
the
online
presentation.
Sir.
L
A
A
Seeing
none
does
the
board
have
any
questions
for
the
applicant.
O
Absolutely
yeah,
so
the
edition
itself
are
really
the
pink,
as
you
can
see
there,
as
well
as
the
yellow.
Everything
else,
of
course,
is
the
existing
structure.
It's
a
19.
It
was
a
year
built
in
1951
and
it's
a
1950
square
foot
house
as
at
this
time,
one
level.
So
the
addition
there
you
see
in
the
towards
the
front
or
in
the
northern
section
right
there,
where
the
yellow
and
pink
are.
This
is
where
an
existing
porch
is
our
back
porch.
So
we're
just
trying
to.
O
We
want
to
remove
that
porch
and
put
that
addition
there.
So
we
are
there,
you
see
on
the
right
of
the
of
the
square.
Pink
is
our
master
bathroom,
I'm
sorry
master
bedroom
right
next
to
it
is
going
to
be
the
bath,
the
master
bathroom
for
an
extension,
but
the
yellow
itself
and
the
on
the
top.
O
There
is
a
kind
of
a
smaller
enclosed
porch
there
in
the
back
and
then,
of
course,
on
the
very
bottom
part,
is
the
widening
of
the
front
porch
and,
of
course,
on
the
I'm
sorry,
on
the
left
hand,
side
pink
is
the
addition
of
a
smaller
office.
My
wife
and
I
both
work
from
home,
and
we
would
like
to
have
a
an
extension
of
that
side
of
the
house
for
an
office
as
well
as
a
half
bathroom.
There.
I
O
M
I
O
Into
a
side
door
so.
I
My
point
is:
you've
got
two
stairs
on
the
left
there
right
that
if
they
didn't
exist,
you
you
essentially
would
be
on
pretty
much
within
the
setback
and
you've
got
a
rear
stair
there
coming
off
the
deck
right
that,
if,
if
it
wasn't
there,
you
would
essentially
be
in
the
setback
so
and
what
I'm
saying
is
on
the
side
in
the
rear.
Essentially,
the
steps
are
what's
requesting
the
variants,
not
necessarily
the
addition
of
like.
O
Correct
because
we
are
built
on
a
slab,
you
know
we're
we're
built
on
a
with
a
slab
underneath,
where
you
can,
you
know,
crawl
like
a
crawl
space.
O
I
Yeah
and
then
the
pool
the
full
guy's
trying
to
draw
that
one
straight,
so
it
would
be
crooked
to
the
house.
That's
not
for
this
meeting
correct.
Do
you
have
a
plan
of
the
existing
house.
I
O
A
A
C
O
A
At
okay,
all
right
any
other
questions
all
right,
seeing
none!
You
have
three
minutes
for
a
bottle.
If
you
should
choose
to
use
it.
O
Like
I
said,
these
are
just
enhancements,
we're
improving
the
house,
we're
not
trying
to
make
it
any
worse
and
I'll
yield
the
rest
of
my
time.
Thank
you.
A
E
Kamaria
pettis
mackel
from
the
city
attorney's
office,
so
there
are
multiple
variants.
Requests
on
this.
If
the
board
is
so
inclined,
you
can
bifurcate
the
variance
emotion
to
address
certain
variances
if
the
board
so
chooses,
but
that
is
an
option,
since
there
are
multiple
variances
on
this
application.
B
D
When
considering
the
five
hardship
criteria
set
forth
in
section
27-80
of
the
city
code,
specifically
that
the
hardship
or
practical
difficulty
does
not
specifically
result
from
the
actions
of
the
applicant.
As
the
house
was
constructed
at
an
angle
and
in
order
to
expand
the
house,
it
all
would
encroach
into
some
of
the
setbacks
that
this
variance
requests.
A
Okay.
Here's
our
second,
oh.
B
A
F
Anastasia
barnes,
the
next
case
before
you
is
vrb
2196.
The
address
is
509
south
armenia
avenue.
The
agent
is
clayton
berkelmeyer
and
the
request
is
for
to
reduce
the
required
setback
from
five
feet
to
zero
feet
for
a
freestanding
sign,
and
this
is
in
accordance
with
section
27289.3
b5
d.
F
Here's
a
street
view
of
the
subject:
property
and
location
of
the
proposed
sign
again:
a
site
plan
showing
existing
trees,
right-of-way
line
and
proposed
sign
and
an
elevation
of
the
purpose
sign.
F
P
I
P
I
Yeah,
that's
right!
That's
right!
So
I'm
not
sure
if
it's
a
conflict
or
not
I'm
just
a
we're
just
a
tenant
in
the
building.
E
Camaria
pettis
mackel
from
the
city
attorney's
office.
Excuse
me,
mr
pastor,
do
you
know
anything
personal
related
I
mean,
do
you
have
any
knowledge
of
this
project.
E
Do
you
have
any
personal
or
financial
interest
in
regards
to
this
application,
this
applicant,
or
this
project.
I
No,
but
it's
probably
better
if
I
refuse
to
not
have
any
appearance
of
favoritism
since
we
are
a
tenant
of
the
same
building,
I
think
it
would
be
better.
E
Okay,
just
for
the
record,
I
will
provide
you
with
the
form
8b
to
document
that
you
are
going
to
recuse
yourself
from
this
application.
That's
specifically
vrv2196.
E
A
P
Clayton
bricklemeyer
bricklaw
group,
it's
4427
west
kennedy.
We
moved
a
couple
weeks
ago.
I
had
to
write
it
down
and
I
have
been
sworn
great.
You.
P
P
P
P
The
relevant
code
section
would
give
us
a
10
foot
high
sign
we
actually
in
order
to
keep
it
under
the
canopy
of
those
trees.
It's
going
to
be
something
in
the
order
of
that
that
person
standing
there
looks,
I
think,
they're
supposed
to
be
six
feet,
there's
also
a
current.
P
You
can
see
it
and
it
actually
probably
tipped
off
mr
pasteur
tgh
rehab
has
a
sign
that
you
can
see
in
that.
Looking
down
the
road
picture
and
there's
actually
another
one
further
north,
there
are
non-conforming
signs
again.
As
I
said
a
second
ago,
my
my
client
purchased
this
property
and
is
kind
of
in
a
general
cleanup
mode.
They're
going
to
get
the
signage.
The
non-conforming
signs
are
going
to
come
out.
All
the
tenants
that
are
on
the
non-conforming
signs
are
going
to
be
moved
to
this
one.
P
Conforming
monument
sign
conforming,
except
for
this
variance
request,
but
the
request
would
be
to
move
it
forward
so
that
you
can
see
the
sign.
I
would
say
that
there's
an
additional
element
here,
which
is
this,
is
a
medical
office
building.
We
do
have
emergency
vehicles
that
come
and
go.
It
is
sort
of
of
a
heightened
importance
that
you'll
be
able
to
see
what
the
address
is
right
now,
the
address.
P
A
Seeing
none
does
the
board
have
any
questions.
C
P
Yes,
it's
it's.
If
you
look
actually
it's
probably
more
helpful
this
one
that
that
yellow
piece
is
sort
of
an
approximate
location
between
the
two
trees.
We
also
had
some
comments
from
natural
resources
about,
because
I
don't
can't
tell
you
the
exact
dbh,
my
guess
is:
we
probably
are
going
to
need
to
maintain
a
10
foot
radius
from
those
things.
P
C
P
P
I
actually
would
defer
to
city
staff
on
what
I
actually
don't
know
the
screening
requirement,
but
it
is
going
to
be
screened,
they're
just
going
to
screen
behind
the
sign,
so
you
can
actually
see
what
the
building
is,
but
they
are
going
to
cover
up
that
that
parking
with
an
opaque,
green,
something
another
hedge
I
mean,
but
it's
going
to
be
maintained
as
opposed
to
the
one.
That's.
P
P
C
P
C
A
So
I
have
a
quick
question
for
you.
You
mentioned
those
other
some
of
those
other
non-conforming
signs,
including
the
tgh
sign.
Did
you
say
that
those
were
coming
out
absolutely.
P
Okay,
that's
the
whole
point
of
this
is
to
clean
up
this
entire
road
frontage.
There's
an
uglier
one
to
the
north
and
they're
both
tenants
and
those
tenants.
I
imagine
the
tenants
are
not
going
to
be
thrilled
but
they're
going
to
get
their
designated
space
on
the
new
monument
sign.
That's
going
to
look
a
whole
lot
nicer,
so.
A
B
B
Based
upon
applicant,
presenting
competent
and
substantial
evidence
in
the
record
and
at
this
public
hearing
of
an
unnecessary
hardship
or
practical
difficulty,
when
considering
the
five
hardship
criteria
set
forth
in
section
2780
of
the
city
code,
specifically
that
this
building,
as
it
currently
is,
has
several
signs
that
no
longer
meet
a
the
visual
requirement
and
b
and
the
code.
Those
would
be
consolidated
into
one
sign
in
the
front
in
order
to
clean
up
the
area
there.
A
A
F
Anastasia
barnes,
the
next
case
before
you
is
brb
2199,
the
applicant
is
jeffrey
lackey,
the
zoning
is
rs-60
and
the
address
is
4840
west
flamingo
road.
The
request
is
to
reduce
the
rear,
rear
yard
setback
from
five
feet
to
three
feet:
to
construct
a
screen:
pull
enclosure
under
15
feet
in
height,
in
accordance
with
section

290.5.
F
Q
I've
been
a
resident
of
the
city
of
tampa
since
august
2002,
when
I
was
attending
the
university
of
tampa
through
college
and
now
adulthood.
I've
called
tampa
my
home
for
nearly
20
years.
Tampa
is
where
my
wife
and
I
have
decided
to
raise
our
two
children
twins
who
just
turned
one
this
week.
Our
objective
of
this
variance
request
is
to
provide
our
children
a
safe
and
manageable
area
for
them
to
swim
in
our
pool
without
the
threat
of
disease-carrying
insects,
insects,
snakes,
raccoons,
possums
and
other
wildlife.
Q
In
addition
to
increasing
safety
from
external
factors,
the
variance
requests
will
also
allow
a
safer
pathway
around
the
pool
for
proper
egress,
as
well
as
providing
adequate
room
to
perform
routine
cleaning
and
maintenance.
Finally,
this
variance
request
will
enable
us
to
provide
increased
safety
from
protection
of
accidental
drowning.
In
the
event,
someone
were
to
fall
from
the
pool
deck
into
the
canal.
Q
We
are
requesting
the
setback
for
the
rear
lot
line
be
reduced
from
five
feet
to
three
feet.
This
additional
two
feet
will
allow
for
a
safer
pathway
around
the
pool,
increasing
the
rear,
egress
width
from
one
and
a
half
feet
to
three
and
a
half
feet.
Without
this
increase
in
width,
it
would
pose
a
safety
hazard
walking
around
such
a
narrow
pathway,
as
well
as
preventing
easy
access
to
performing
cleaning
and
routine
maintenance
hardships
due
to
the
uniquely
small
footprint
of
the
backyard
area.
Q
The
variants,
if
granted,
will
not
substantially
interfere
with
or
injure
the
health,
safety
or
welfare
of
the
other
of
others
whose
property
would
be
affected
by
this
allowance.
If
granted,
the
pool
enclosure
will
protect
my
family
internally
as
well
as
protect
my
neighbors
externally.
This
will
create
a
barrier
to
the
pool
to
prevent
neighborhood
children
or
unsupervised
people
from
entering
the
pool
area
potentially
drowning.
Q
And
a
couple
of
seconds,
a
raccoon
which
frequents
my
backyard
as
well
and
knowing
the
issue.
Q
So
there
he
is
running
across
the
seawall
only
one.
This
time
my
record
was
four,
unlike
the
other
gentleman
six,
which
was
pretty
impressive
but
frequently
possums,
raccoons
they're
in
the
neighborhood.
You
know
they're
part
of
our
community,
and
you
know
I
don't
wish
to
remove
them.
I
just
wish
to
live
in
harmony
with
them.
So
that
way
I
can
maintain
safety
for
myself
and
my
family.
E
Kamaria
pettis
mackel
from
the
city
attorney's
office
just
before
the
public
comes
up.
This
is
the
proposed
site
plan
that
was
submitted
by
the
applicant
correct.
F
In
anesthesia
bargains,
yes,
it's
my
understanding.
So
in
the
video
there
was
no
pool
shown
it's
my
understanding
that
has
the
pool
been
constructed
or
is
under
constructed
under
construction.
Okay,.
R
His
property
sits
just
west
of
my
property
he's
actually
toward
the
open
bay.
We,
so
we
look
down
the
canal
to
his
property
if
granted,
the
variance
he
is
sinking
will
allow
him
to
put
a
caged
pool
three
feet
from
the
seawall,
which
would
entirely
block
the
view
of
all
the
residents
to
the
west
of
him
looking
out
the
bay
as
equally
concerning
as
the
fact
that
the
work
that
this
would
forever
change
the
nature
and
aesthetics
of
the
canal,
it's
a
beautiful
canal
and
there's
no
caged
pools
currently
on
that
canal.
R
R
We
actually
are
going
to
construct
on
this
property
at
a
later
date
and
we've
seen
changes.
You
know
good
and
bad
changes
all
along
this
property,
but
we
are
looking
for
the
preservation,
the
unique
history
of
this
canal,
the
aesthetics,
the
natural
and
open
environment
and
the
sense
of
community
pair
is
paramount
to
those
of
us
who
have
chosen
to
purchase
homes
on
the
water.
R
A
Sure,
if
you
can
just
give
it
to
staff,
they'll
take
care
of
it
from
there
and
then
don't
forget
to
state
your
name.
Your
address
and
confirm
that
you've
been
sworn.
Please.
A
S
Good
evening
my
name
is
julia
mandel,
I'm
with
the
law,
firm
of
gray,
robinson
401,
east
jackson,
street,
and
I'm
here
representing
several
of
the
concerned,
neighbors
on
the
flamingo
canal,
and
while
I
do
appreciate
the
position
that
has
been
raised
by
the
applicant
and
the
property
owner,
this
is
a
little
bit
of
a
different
situation
than
when
you
heard
about
earlier
today.
First
of
all,
as
noted
by
ms
hutchinson,
by
k,
there
are
no
other
screened
pools
on
the
flying
go
canal.
In
fact,
I
actually
spent
some
time
on
the
google
maps.
S
There
are
really
very
few
in
the
entire
west
shore
waterfront
area.
It's
not
the
norm
very
different
than
some
of
the
other
conversations
you
heard
earlier.
This
is
not
the
norm
to
even
have
cage
pools.
That
being
said,
what's
also
a
different
situation
than
what
you
heard
previously,
this
pool
hasn't
even
been
completed.
S
S
S
I
think
really
what's
important
here
is
variances
are
intended
to
deal
with
unique
hardships.
Those
unique
cards
should
have
to
go
and
run
with
the
property
that
is
being
involved
in
the
application.
In
this
instance,
what
has
been
alleged
is
not
a
unique
hardship.
In
fact,
it
is
the
epitome
of
a
self-created
hardship.
You
have
a
property
owner,
they
purchase
property,
they
knew
what
the
the
guidelines
were.
They
knew
what
they
would
have
to
do.
S
They
went
ahead
and
sought
to
permit
their
pool,
which
they
had
every
right
to
do,
and
it
was
in
line
with
the
code.
They've
come
back
now
and
want
a
screen
enclosure,
but
unfortunately,
the
screen
enclosure
that
they
want
to
have
cannot
be
accommodated
under
the
code
as
it
exists
today,
and
that
is
something
that
was
caused
by
their
actions,
not
by
the
actions
of
the
property,
not
by
the
actions
of
the
area,
not
by
any
other
unique
circumstances
in
surrounding
area.
S
In
addition,
as
noted
in
the
evidence
in
the
record,
this
is
not
in
harmony
with
this
neighborhood,
this
particular
neighborhood
this
canal
and
the
areas
surrounding
it
screened-in
enclosures,
are
just
not
the
norm.
I
have
additional
pictures
of
flamingo
canal
that
I
can
show
you
you
kind
of
saw
you
see
part
of
it
there,
but
let
me
go
ahead
and
just
put
on
what
used
to
be
the
element.
I
don't
know
what
they
call
it.
One
more.
S
This
is
the
the
mouth
of
the
flamingo
canal.
There
are
several
pools,
none
are
enclosed
and
this
is
going
way
back
to
the
edge
there's
no
screen
enclosures
at
all
up
into
that
area,
and
so
again
we
go
back
to
you
have
to
look
at
each
variance
request
based
upon
the
hardship
which
is
alleged
and
how
it
has
an
impact
on
the
neighborhood
as
a
whole
and
both
in
this
situation,
you
don't
have
a
unique
hardship
that
runs
with
this
property.
You
have
something
that
in
fact
was
self-created,
because
the
pool
did
not
exist.
S
It
doesn't
exist
completely.
Today,
it's
under
construction
and
the
code
could
have
been
accommodated.
In
addition,
it
does
have
an
impact
you've
heard
testimony
that
it
will
create
an
effect
on
the
view
corridor
down
the
canal.
In
addition,
you're
just
not
seeing
this
being
the
norm
having
any
kind
of
screen
enclosures
now,
certainly
they
have
the
right
to
have
a
screen
enclosure
that
meets
the
code,
but
even
that
isn't
the
norm.
S
I
understand
you
know
that
this
property
owner
this
gentleman
would
like
to
have
a
safe
space
for
his
family.
That
is
totally
a
reasonable
thing
to
want,
but
you
have
to
look
at
this
in
the
context
of
the
whole,
what
this
could
have
the
impact
on
the
neighborhood
on
this
canal
and
any
precedent
that
it
could
potentially
set
and
change
the
nature
and
the
character
of
this
area.
S
I
thank
you
for
your
time.
We
do
request
that
you
deny
this
variant
and
I
am
available
for
questions.
S
And
if
I
could
note
that
the
letter
contains
not
just
we
don't
want
it,
it
contains
factual
information
relating
to
what
the
character
of
the
neighborhood
is,
which
I
think
is
appropriate
and
important
as
it
relates
to
a
determination
of
whether
the
the
hardship,
the
variance
criteria
are
met.
Thank
you.
D
A
Okay,
do
if
there's
no
one
else
to
speak
about
this
application?
I
will
open
it
up
for
board
questions
either
for
the
applicant
for
staff
or
for
any
of
the
speakers.
Q
So,
at
the
advisement
of
our
pool
contractor
a
pool
that
is
narrower
than
10
feet
also
increases
the
risk
of
other
safety
issues
falling
into
it
hitting
the
other
side,
so
you're
kind
of
trading.
One
safety
issue
for
the
other.
That's
why
we
had
done
the
minimum
that
they
had
recommended
for
safety
reasons,
was
10
feet
and
that's
what
we
are
putting
in.
Q
I
Q
I
A
Q
Correct
okay:
first,
I
would
like
to
present.
Q
All
right
a
letter
of
a
support
from
my
immediate
neighbor,
so
my
neighbor,
that
is
adjacent
to
me
right
next
door,
a
letter
of
support,
saying
they
do
not
oppose
my
variance
request.
So
this
is
the
most
impacted
person
right
next
to
me
and
they
have
written
a
letter
of
support
to
miss
hubbard's
point.
She
her
main
point
is
she
didn't
want
to
mess
up
her
view.
So
here
I
have
a
picture
from
a
public
website
of
her
backyard
and
you
can
see
that
there
is
it's
completely
obstructed
by
trees.
Q
She
can't
even
see
my
property
from
her
property.
So
if
I
were
to
construct
a
pool
cage,
she
would
not
be
able
to
see
it
in
the
first
place.
Here
is
a
view
from
my
house
down
and
her
house
is
beyond
that
large
tree.
So
the
white
house
gave
me
the
letter
of
support
and
next
to
that,
large
tree
is
on
her
property,
so
she
wouldn't
be
able
to
even
see
my
pool
cage
and
then
also
I'm
requesting
a
screen
enclosure,
not
a
brick
wall.
Q
So,
if
anything,
it
would
increase
due
to
the
need
of
no
longer
needing
of
having
an
opaque
fence
that
white
fence
there.
I
would
be
able
to
remove
that
and
in
actuality.
If
she
were
able
to
be
see
down
the
canal,
it
would
actually
might
improve
her
view.
So
that
would
include
my
rebuttal.
A
Q
Right
so
board
members,
I
understand
we
have
competing
interests
here.
Typically,
we
do.
I
want
to
be
respectful
of
my
opposition
to
interest
and
point
out
that
she
will
not
actually
be
prejudiced
at
all
with
his
view
being
obstructed,
as
it's
already
being
obstructed
by
a
tree
on
her
property.
My
application
of
construction
is
not
for
a
opaque
wall,
but
for
transparent
screen
enclosure
which
can
easily
be
seen
seen
through.
Q
This
will
not
worsen
her
shape
or
after
the
variance
is
approved
than
she
is
now.
In
fact,
if
granted,
the
existing
opaque
fence
can
be
removed
and
would
potentially
improve
her
view.
We
can
kind
of
call
it
a
win-win
here.
My
twins,
babies
can
be
safe
and
her
view
will
not
be
diminished,
so
I'll
close
it
out
with
ever
since
I
became
a
dad.
My
goal
has
been
to
provide
for
my
family
and
keep
them
safe,
and
hopefully,
by
approving
this
variance,
you
can
help
me
keep
my
children
safe
as
well.
Thank
you.
A
I
The
record
of
this
public
hearing
of
an
unnecessary
hardship
or
practical
difficulty
when
considering
the
five
hardship
criteria
set
forth
in
section
2780
of
the
city
code,
specifically
that
this
was
a
self-imposed
hardship
that
the
pool
that
requires
the
screen
is
being
constructed
now,
and
we
heard
testimony
that
a
screen
was
planned
for
the
future
but
is
not
actually
allowable
in
the
spot.
That's
being
requested.
A
All
right,
we
have
a
motion
by
mr
pastor
to
deny
seconded
by
miss
long
all
those
in
support
of
the
motion
to
deny
say:
aye
aye,
all
those
opposed
name.
All
right
motion
is
denied
four
to
one.
You
have
the
right
to
appeal
to
city
council
and
if
you
have
any
questions
you
can
reach
out
to
steph.
Thank
you
for
your
time.
