NEW BUSINESS:
Variance Screen Room Enclosure 1715 S. Riverside Drive: Mr.
Paul Collins, owner/applicant, was present. Mrs. Blazi read a
memo from Dennis Fischer, Building Official, into the record. It
was noted that Mr. Fischer asked the Agency to consider a
recommendation to allow "aluminum style screen room additions for
existing patio slabs." The Agency agreed to discuss this issue
sometime during the evenings meeting. Mrs. Blazi read through
the Department head comments. A letter from Mrs. Collins
physician was read into the record which stated she has
emphysema, she moved to Florida for health reasons, and a screen
room would benefit her, because she could breath fresh clean air
without having to go to the beach and sit in direct sunlight.
The members agreed the variance requested met the five (5)
criteria. Mr. Garthwaite moved to grant the variance to enclose
the existing slab with an aluminum screen enclosure as per the
definition of a screen enclosure to accommodate a handicapped
person. Mrs. Martin seconded. Motion Carried 4-0.
CONTINUED ITEMS:
SD-89-1 Harbor Heiqhts Subdivision Preliminary Plat: Mr.
George Jalovecky and Mr. Pat Gallow of Centex Real Estate, and
Ron Ferland of Dyer, Riddle, Mills, and Precourt were present to
discuss this item. Mrs. Blazi went through the Department head
comments. Mr. Garthwaite brought up the court order which stated
the proposed project roads were not to tie into the existing
Silver Ridge Subdivision roads. Further discussion regarding
roads noted property South of the Silver Ridge entrance was

available, but the owner was asking too high a price for what was
needed, and D.O.T. would not allow access to u.s. 1 closer than
two hundred fifty feet (250') from the existing Silver Ridge
entrance. Mr. Garthwaite asked that the City Attorney be
contacted to address roads for Harbor Heights subdivision and the
court order. It was noted that five (5) lots abutting Silver
Ridge Subdivision did not meet minimum requirements. There was
discussion regarding water retention for the project. Mr.
Ferland believed the retention met regulations, but could not say
for sure if it was adequate. Marvin Hein, resident of Silver
Ridge, spoke about the retention problems Silver Ridge already
has, and he believed there needed to be more exits for water to
the Indian River, as there is currently only one (1). He added
the problems with retention started when Pelican Cove West was
built. Mrs. Garthwaite also discussed the proposed access to
Harbor Heights and the court order. Mr. Jalovecky believed that
if access could not be gained at a reasonable price or shared
with Silver Ridge, the project would be dropped. Mr. Gallow
stated Centex had tried to gain access by purchasing some of the
"Coleman property", but D.O.T. would not give access to U.S. 1.
Mr. Garthwaite moved to table this for a legal opinion from the
City Attorney regarding the legality of tying into the Silver
Ridge access from U.S. 1. Mrs. Glover seconded. Motion Carried
4-0.
NEW BUSINESS:
Zoninq Text Amendment Bed & Breakfast 110 E. Yelkca Terrace:
Harold Brandner, owner, was present to discuss this request.
Mrs. Blazi went through the department head comments. Mr.
Brandner stated he had one bedroom and bathroom with a private
entrance currently in his home, and he also had an apartment
available. He added that breakfast would be served in his home
and there was a kitchen in the apartment. It was noted that half
of the site in question is zoned B-3 and the other half is zoned
R-3. Mrs. Plaskett noted the same issue had recently arisen in
New Smyrna Beach and the request had been denied because New
Smyrna feared such places could turn into boarding houses.
Edgewater's B-3 zoning would allow accommodations for up to three
(3) outsiders. Mr. Brandner stated the intent was a place where
foreigners, friends mainly from Austria, could stay while
visiting Florida. After some discussion regarding the proposed
use and an advertisement prepared and circulated by Mr. Brandner
(copy attached), the members believed Mr. Brandner should request
a rezoning to have the R-3 half of his lot zoned B-3. Mrs.
Martin so moved, seconded by Mrs. Glover. Motion Carried 4-0.
The members
for a three
queried licensing to rent rooms in the B-3 district

received a call from John Massey regarding airport hazard zones.
She informed the members this issue would come before them at the
next regular meeting.

flea markets in the city at the next regular meeting.
Aqency Member Reports: There was further discussion regarding
