to parking. He went on to say deed restrictions don't concern us. Mr. Stewart

of Edgewater for the City's intentional interference with the covenants

problem was no setbacks, distance between signs and banners, pennants, etc. If
we do away with this statement"except as provided herein" that will do away
with the banner signs. The Board agreed to see what the county and New Smyrna
Beach ordinances are in relation to signs. There are so may resources
available to the Board they said they should use them, such as the
Florida League of Cities. The Board instructed that information be obtained
from other Cities as to their sign ordinances.

The Board discussed the subject at length. It was stated that a patio is
a roofless court yard space for recreation, usually paved and joins a
residence. A screen room is usually a patio that has been covered by a
roof and screened in. A florida room is a patio covered by a roof with
permanent fixed windows of glass or plastic.
