Secretary Gordon read from the application as follows:
"Property involved: Lot #45, Block #4, s/D Lake Mdition

as follows:
Property Mdress: 733 North East 8th Avenue
Property is presently zoned, RlA, Forrrerly Zoned: RlA
Denial was made upon existing zoning requirerrents frc:rn
which relief is required: RlA zoning district requires
minimum lot area of 7, 500 square feet.
Nature of exception or variance required, Applicant is
requesting the required 7. 500 square foot lot area be
reduced to 6, 625 square feet.
Proposed irrproverrent, Construction of a 1, 500 foot
minirm.nn pole house, two stories.
Narre of Applicant: Robert Brown
Address of Applicant: 701 South Seacrest Boulevard,
Boynton Beach"
Secretary Gordon read the applicant's responses to the six
questions as follows:
"a. 'I'ha special conditioos that exist to this particular
parcel of land are: the lot is presently zoned for
single-family residential use, hOVlever at the present
tirre, there exists a shortage of square footage 00 the
road frontage, required by current zoning laws, to
allow the constructioo of a hare. Also, because of
the low elevation of the sites in this area, it will
be necessary to fill at least one foot of fill over
the entire area of the property to enable this site
to have a yard. Witlxlut this fill, the alternatives
for the prospective hareo.mer would be to have a
hare in the middle of an inundated lot, with no
available off-street parking.
b. 'I'hase special conditions do not result from any
actioos taken by myself, but are simply a result
of progressive zoning changes that have taken place
over the years since the developrent's initial
platting and the natural settling and decanposition
of the muck topsoil layer.
c. By the granting of this variance to build, the City
of Boynton Beach will not be conferring any special
privileges to this particular property that is denied
by this ordinance to other hares or buildings
presently in this Satre zoning district.

"d. The literal interpretation of the provisions of this
chapter would deprive rre of the rights that are
enjoyed by other horres within this sarre zoning
district and would work an unnecessary and undue
hardship upon rre.
e. The variance that I request is a minimum variance that
will ITBke it possible for this land to be used for
its most reasonable use in this area.
f. The granting of this variance will be in hanrony
with the general intent and purpose of this chapter
and will in no way l:e injurious to the area involved
or detrirrental to the public welfare."
Mr. Robert Brown, 701 South Seacrest Boulevard, Boynton Beach,
stated that he has lived at this address for the last seven
years. Chairman Thompson asked the applicant if there was
anything he would like to tell the Board that might shed some
light on why he feels he should be granted a variance. Mr.
Brown stated that he purchased this lot with the intention
of building a home for himself. He is presently renting in
his Mother's house and would like to leave so he purchased
this land in order to build a house. It is a very nice and
quiet area. All of the traffic from Federal Highway and the
railroad tracks is swept off to the west by the nice breeze
that comes off the Intracoastal so it makes an ideal lot for
a nice quiet neighborhood. Mr. Brown contacted the property
owners adjacent to the subject lot and was told they weren't
intereptedm breaking up their parcels of land just for a 10,
20 or 30 ft. accommodation to him so that he could buy 10,
20 or 30 ft. to allow himself the needed frontage. One
property owner next to the subject lot, said he would sell
both of his lots which are currently listed at $25,000. That
would be a financial burden on him to have to buy three lots
to build on one.
The reason Mr. Brown put "pole house" down is because the
land is a little low, especially in one area. He understood
that there was some concern about filling these lots because
of added run-off water. Mr. Brown thought the best compromise
would be to allow the water to run under the house. He has
seen a lot of pole houses constructed in New Smyrna, Hobe
Sound, the Key,s, Marco Island and St. Petersburg. They have
a good, useful life of 25 to 30 years and the banks will
finance on them. As long as it meets all the engineering
specifics and requirements, he did not see that it would be
i'n any way dangerous or anything like that.

SEPTEMBER 12, 1983
Chairman Thompson called for any questions of the applicant
by the Board Members. At this time there were none. As this
was a Public Hearing, Chairman Thompson asked if there was
anyone else in the audience who wished to speak IN FAVOR of
granting the variance. There were no responses. Chairman
Thompson asked if there was anyone in the audience wishing
to speak AGAINST the granting of the variance. No one responded.
Mr. Brown asked if he could speak in his own behalf. He
wished to add that he has spent about $1.500 for soil samples,
etc., which would be nonrefundable if he did not get the
variance. He said it would be money that would be thrown
by the wayside.
Secretary Gordon had two pieces of correspondence in opposition
to granting the request. He read a letter received from W.
Pflepsen and Susan Pflepsen dated August 31, 1983. Secretary
Gordon also read a notation written on the Notice of Hearing
form, received from Henry Starr and Gisela Starr.
Mr. Slavin had questions to address to Mr. Howell. Mr. Slavin
referred to Mr. Brown's comments about a foot of fill on the
property and then about a pole house. We have a blueprint of
a building going up but Mr. Slavin did not know whether it
was being put up on tiles or being built on the ground level.
Mr. Howell stated that a pole house ordinarily is set above
ground and it will be allowed if it is structurally sound and
does not exceed the height limitations. Mr. Slavin understood
that but referred to the two statements made about, a) a foot
of soil and, b) a pole house. He did not know what the speci-
fications call for in the architect's drawing but asked if it
would be a pole house or a house on another foot of soil. It
was Mr. Howell's understanding that the applicant wanted to
add a foot of fill which is pOSSible as long as he doesn't
impede the natural flow of water because that is in a flood
plaRe zone. It was also Mr. Howell's understandinq that the
pole house would be elevated above ground level. In other
words, Mr. Slavin ascertained, that the applicant wants to
add a foot of soil and then build a pole house. Mr. Howell
concurred.
In this case, Chairman Thompson advised, it is not a question
of the type of house as this is allowable by the City as
long as it meets the standard code. The question before the
Board tonight is the reduction of 875 square feet.
Mr. Slavin asked Mr.
for this house to be
requested, setbacks.
Howell if there was enough square footage
constructed on the property with the
Mr. Howell replied affirmatively.

Vice Chairman Ampol addressed his questions regarding the
height of the structure and proper footing to Mr. Howell.
Mr. Howell concurred that it would be two stories and would be
similar to setting on piles and the applicant would be limited
to how high he could raise it. This would be determined by the
pitch of the roof because there is a 25 ft. maximum height
limitation, but the applicant would be able to raise it to
a certain extent.
Chairman Thompson commented that if the request is granted,
the 7~' setback requirement would be met and the house would
be 35' wide.
Being a newcomer on the Board, Mr. Weinberg asked the Chairman
if it was the Board's responsibility to consider the type of
house being built on the property in relationship with the
surrounding area. Chairman Thompson referred to properties
being zoned according to the City ordinances. He didn't
believe that, lawfully, the Board could say what style of house
should be constructed. As long as it meets the City specifica-
tions, design is not part of that interpretation. Mr. Weinberg
commented that one of the objections here states that it is an
inappropriate structure for that location and he was just
wondering whether the Board had to take that into consideration
or not. Mr. Weinberg stated that the Chairman's explanation
gave him the answer.
For the record, Chairman Thompson commented that, as was pointed
out,there are two vacant lots and to purchase two lots would be
a hardship. Chairman Thompson believed from what he saw on the
other side, there was no land available. Mr. Brown added that
there was a home on the other side.----.-
Mr. Slavin moved to grant Mr. Brown the variance as requested
for several reasons:
1) The lot is not conforming because of City actions
in upgrading building codes and zoning laws.
2) Back in 1972L we have copies of Minutes of the Board
of Adjustment, grantinq a variance to this lot to
build a residence on a ~~_lot. We know we have
tactual records that Hr. Brown tried to urchase
a ~ ~onal ornperty and it is beyond his means.
We know that we cannot deny a person the use of
their property. The house will fit within the
variance required. The Building Department will
see that all codes, heights, etc., will be kept
and maintained and will be built accordingly.

Vice Chairman Ampol seconded the motion. Under discussion, Mr.
Weinberg referred to the Minutes of 1972 and asked if the
variance was granted once, and the property still remains
vacant, as in this particular case, is it necessary to get a
current variance. Mr. Howell advised that that variance was
on the frontage which was 60' and the variance being applied
for now refers to the total square footage. At the request

The purpose of the variance as stated on the application is to build

Mr. Jim Carter would like the Board to grant the variance. He
provided copies of a memorandum, Zonilut which deorives owner of use
of oroperty invalid. to each member of the Board. It is his understanding
that you cannot deprive a person of the use of his property through
zoning.
Era. Emily Jackson spoke in favor of the variance. In 1951 we came
down here and there were 4 houses on 8th Avenue, 1 on 9th Avenue,
and 4 houses in the process of being built. We liked it 80 well,
we bought:. our lots. It 'l6S a beautitul subdivision, sidewalks, paved
streets, and curbs. These people bought this property with the hope
that some day they would move down here and live. She would be
deli8hted to have a house built on this lot. She would lilte to see it
built up. There are some beautitul homes on 50' lots.
Adel Nicholar asked if this would be a single fa.mily residential
type of home. Mr. Carter stated that he is not asking for apprcwal
of plans, just for a variance.

a single family residence.

asked if anyone was present to represen~ the applicant.
Beverly Bottosto, 478 Wayman Circle, West Palm Beach,
Florida 33406 was asking for a variance because she is an

MINUTES - BOARD OF ADJUSTMENT
BOYNTON BEACH, FLORIDA
JANUARY 9, 1984
Interior Designer in Delray Beach but presently lives with
her family in West Palm Beach, near Wellington, which is
about a 45 minute drive. Miss Bottosto wants to build a
small home for herself.
Miss Bottosto informed Mr. Ampol that she is single and will
move into the home herself. She confirmed Mr. Mearns' state-
ment that she purchased the lot in November, 1983. In the
Building Department's plats, Mr. Slavin questioned if this
lot has always been a 50 foot lot or a part of another lot.
Mr. Keehr replied that it has always been a 50 foot lot.
Chairman Thompson added that at least 95% or 97% of the lots
were platted at 50 feet and some at 45 feet, depending on
where they were located.
Mr. Ampol noted that the zoning in that area was changed in
June, 1975. Mr. Keehr advised that the actual RIA stayed
the same, but the size of the lot etc. increased.
Chairman Thompson asked if anyone wished to speak in favor
of granting the variance.
Bob Brown, 701 South Seacrest Boulevard, purchased a lot
around and close to the same area and received a variance.
In the mail, he received a notice to make a statement of
whether he was for or against it, and since he is just down
the street, Mr. Brown figured he would come down and speak
in favor of the variance. As far as he was concerned, it will
be no problem on his part.
Chairman Thompson asked if anyone else wished to speak in
favor of the proposed variance. There was no response.
Mr. Ampol observed a drawing of the proposed home. To.him,
it looked better than an empty lot.
Chairman Thompson asked if anyone wanted to speak against
granting the variance. .
Adele Nicholar, 721 N. E. 8th Avenue, Boynton Beach, said
the lot adjoins her property. There were three 50 foot lots
a few years back. One was owned by one person, and two 50
foot lots were owned by another person. The man with the
one 50 foot lot came in here a few years ago, said it was a
hardship and that he had offered to buy some of the land
from the man that owns the 100 feet and couldn't get it, so
he asked for a variance. This Board said it was a hardship
and asked what he could do with 50 feet, so they let him
have it. Ms. Nicholar said the property owners backed down
- 2 -
MINUTES - BOARD OF ADJUSTMENT
BOYNTON BEACH, FLORIDA
JANUARY 9, 1984
because it is true, if you only have 50 feet, what can you
do. She emphasized that the lot has been standing empty,
and she didn't know how many times it has been sold. Nothing
has ever been done. Ms. Nicholar recalled that the man
showed pictures of a house he was going to build and she
assumed it was done really to gain money by selling the lot.
Without the variance, the man could not have sold the lot.
Ms. Nicholar continued that this party perhaps bought one
lot or perhaps his daughter is buying one lot, but they
always felt as long as the man had the two lots, he had the
amount of property to build the house without a variance.
If this man now sells 50 feet of his 100 feet to Miss
Bottosto and the City allows her to go ahead and build a
house on 50 feet, people will then come before the Board in
a short time and say, "Here I am with only 50 feet left.
Now give me a variance." Ms. Nicholar said they will wind
up with three houses where, normally, there should only have
been two; in fact, really only one.
Ms. Nicholar informed the Board that the first man got a
variance; the second party is getting a variance, and a
third party. When a party has 100 feet, Ms. Nicholar felt
there was no hardship involved. The 100 feet should be used
to build the house. Most of the houses there have 60, 75
or 100 feet frontage. There are very few houses with 50 feet
frontage on that street.
George Nicholar, 711 N. E. 8th Avenue, Boynton Beach, has a
lot that measures 85xlOO and felt the same as Ms. Nicholar.
Where the property owners thought there was going to be one
or perhaps two homes, it now looks like there will be three
homes. That was his objection.
Chairman Thompson determined no one else wished to speak
against granting the variance.
Secretary Gordon read the following correspondence addressed
to Betty Boroni, City Clerk, expressing approval of the
granting of the variance:
1. Letter dated January 4, 1984 from Rose Marcellino, the
owner of several lots located on 7th Avenue.
2. Letter from Salvatore Gatto, owner of a piece of land
located on 7th Avenue, dated January 4, 1984.
3. Letter dated January 4, 1984 from Nicholas Gatto, owner
of a lot on 7th Avenue.

MINUTES - BOARD OF ADJUSTMENT
BOYNTON BEACH, FLORIDA
JANUARY 9, 1984
4. Letter from Waldemar Pflepsen and Sue Pflepsen, owners
of a piece of property on 7th Avenue.
Secretary Gordon then read a letter from Daniel E. Magnus
and Frances E. Magnus, dated December 28, 1983, addressed
to Betty S. Boroni, City Clerk, advising the Board to deny
the application.
Mr. Slavin thought a letter from Eva Simond, addressed to
Miss Bottosto, should also be read into the record. Secre-
tary Gordon read:
"At this time, I wouldn't be interested in selling
my lot, as I am hopeful I will be able to build a
home on it in the near future.
Thank you for your interest."
In looking at the survey of the area, Chairman Thompson
found most of the lots were 50 feet and a few were 40 some
feet. The ones near U. S. I would come up with 60 or 65
feet. Chairman Thompson did find people owning 1-1/2 or
two lots in the area, which either made it 75 or 100 foot
frontage. Mr. Keehr affirmed that was correct and said the
majority of the lots are 50 feet except at the end of the
blocks where they have to be split up. This particular Lot
43 is the west lot of three vacant lots.
Mr. Mearns asked what lot Eva Simond owned that Miss Bottosto
attempted to buy and Ms. Simond was not interested in sell-
ing. Chairman Thompson believed it was Lot 44 (right next
to it). AS our most recent tax books indicate, Mr. Keehr
advised that Lots 43 and 44 are owned by C. W. and Mary
Fleming. However, our tax books are almost a year old now,
so both of those lots could have been sold in the meantime.
Chairman Thompson commented that Miss Bottosto bought Lot
43 from the Flemings in November.
If an original owner wanted to build on a 50 foot lot before
the new Zoning Codes came in, Mr. Slavin asked if it would
be an automatic thing. Mr. Keehr answered, "Yes." Mr.
Slavin determined that, in effect, there would be two more
homes built regardless.
If the owner of Lots 43 and 44 presently owned those two
lots, Chairman Thompson questioned whether they would be
required to split them up or if they would have to own three
or more lots before being required to split them up. Mr.
Keehr confirmed that you have to own three or more lots and
then you are forced to split them up. If the Flemings owned

MINUTES - BOARD OF ADJUSTMENT
BOYNTON BEACH, FLORIDA

it prior to March of 1978, two places could have been built
on each lot (Lots 43 and 44).
Mr. Slavin moved to grant the variance to Miss Bottosto for
the following reasons:
1. It was originally platted as 50 feet. As stated by Mr.
Keehr, if the original owner wanted to build a home there,
there is no way he could have been stopped regardless of
the new zoning codes.
2. There is documentary proof that an attempt was made to
buy the lots or a lot owned by Eva Simond.
Mr. Slavin did not think there was any subterfuge here, as.
an effort was made to conform to all laws and codes.
Mr. Weinberg seconded the motion. At the request of Chair-

Chairman Thompson pointed out to the audience that the Board
does not make a majority vote. It takes five Members to
approve any application, and three negative votes will
disapprove it. Tonight they did not have a full Board, but
six people would be voting. (Mr. O'Brien had not yet
arrived. )
Chairman Thompson said this application had previously been
before the Board. He said the Board bases its decisions
upon six criteria and also upon what they see when they go
out and look at the plot in question to find out whether the
hardship that exists was caused by the City, County or State
government in some way, or was self-imposed. Their decisions
are also based on other things that are brought to their
attention that perhaps they may have overlooked had they not
had someone do some research for them. Chairman Thompson
read the six criteria.
Secretary Gordon read the application and the responses
to the six questions in paragraph 5.
Mrs. Goldie Fisher stated that she now lives at 138 N. E.
16th Avenue, a house that she sold, but the purchasers have
permitted her to stay there until she can get a place built.
She, of course, thought she would get the variance earlier,
but the case was postponed.
Jim Cassidy, Mrs. Fisher's son, said he had lived at
138 N. E. 16th Avenue but is now residing in Miami. He
understood the Board to mention that some undue hardships
would be considered. When Mrs. Fisher bought the lot, Mr.
Cassidy said she was like some people who do not understand
all of the ins and outs of what you are supposed to do and
not supposed to do and even what a variance is. At the
time she bought the lot, Mrs. Fisher was not aware that she
would be needing something like that. Of course, she found
out very abruptly that she did need a variance.

In the meantime, Mrs. Fisher had gone through a great deal
of expense. She had sold the existing home that she had,
paid an Architect for plans, had the soil tested, got
involved with a contract with piling and structural engineer-
ing report, had a survey report, and paid the filing fee,
which Mr. Cassidy understood should not have been paid
because a variance had not been issued.
Mr. Cassidy asked the Members to consider the situation Mrs.
Fisher was in, along with the other things that they must
consider in the City's interest.
Chairman Thompson asked if anyone wished to speak in favor
of granting the variance. There was no response. Chairman
Thompson asked if anyone wished to speak against the grant-
ing of a variance.
Harold Werger, 1306 N. W. 7th Street, got the notification
and request for a variance and checked with the city Clerk.
The city Clerk advised him that there is vacant land on
either side of this property. Some years ago, Mr. Werger
said the City Council passed an Ordinance that made it a
minimum of 60 feet frontage before a lot could be built on.
Otherwise, Laurel Hills and all of Boynton would have been
flooded with houses on 50 foot lots, and that would have
reduced the property values tremendously.
Granted, you can put a house on a 50 foot lot with the
required square footage, but Mr. Werger asked the Members to
remember that if they drive through Boynton, there are two
or three cars in front of every house. More cars are parked
on the driveways, swales, and streets, which makes it very
hazardous, and it does not look very well for the neighbor-
hood. Mr. Werger said that is something that will happen on
a 50 foot lot because there is not adequate room to park the
necessary cars that everybody tends to own today.
In view of the fact that there is vacant land on either side
of Mrs. Fisher's property, Mr. Werger thought Mrs. Fisher
should do just like everybody else has done when they bought.
He had to buy extra land in order to build his house and
meet the Ordinance. Mr. Werger did not think there should
be a variance granted in view of the fact that there is
vacant land on either side to be purchased.
Mr. Slavin asked Mr. Werger when he built his house. Mr.
Werger answered, "Two years ago," and confirmed it was in
1984.

No one else wished to speak against the granting of the
variance.
Mr. Cassidy wished to speak. Chairman Thompson replied that
he could, if what he had to say would be in addition to what
he had said or was something different, but if the opposition
wished to speak, he would grant him the same time.
Mr. Cassidy understood Mr. Werger's concern about the value
of the property going down, particularly if he made a major
investment in the area. If Mr. Werger would look at the
preliminary plans the Architect had drawn of the house, Mr.
Cassidy did not think there would be any way Mr. Werger or
the Board could construe it other than an improvement in the
property.
Mr. Cassidy said the value of the home will be in keeping
with what is around there and a considerable improvement in
terms of value. Mrs. Fisher is building the home to live
in. It is not something she is doing to make a "quick
buck". Everything is being done right as to what they are
putting into the home, as well as the parking space, driving
space, two car garage, and security system. Mr. Cassidy
thought Mr. werger would find it will be an improvement to
the neighborhood and not something that will be an eye sore
or something that will run down the neighborhood. If the
Board had concerns about it, he said he would be happy to
share the plans with the Board.
Mr. Gordon read the following communications:
1. C. Stanley and Erna Y. Weaver, 322 S. W. 8th Avenue,
by letter dated October 29th, wrote that granting the
request, and others like it, would tend to continue the
downgrading of the neighborhood. This area, with good
planning and more practical zoning, could be a tremendous
asset to the whole city.
2. By letter dated October 30, Daniel E. Magnus and Frances
E. Magnus requested the Board to deny the request for
variance (1) because the request is in direct violation
of the established ordinances in the CitY1 (2) by per-
mitting the variance, the entire area will be subject to
increased density in housing, and the overall result
will be a degradation of the living environment and a
decline in property values of existing homeowners 1 and
(3) the Board will be setting a precedent.

3. On a copy of the Notice of Hearing, M. J. Miler, t410
Harbour Inlet Club, wrote, "Yes, anything for improving
of the area."
Chairman Thompson recognized the presence of Danny O'Brien
at 7:20 P. M.
Chairman Thompson commented that he found after going all
over the City many times since the upgrading of the City
Codes, about 1/2 of the City is in violation. Mr. Howell
thought 1/2 might be a little high. Chairman Thompson
believed Mr. Howell would find all properties from Boynton
Beach Boulevard to the north border line have 50 feet front
footage or 25 feet. You run into the same problem to the
west. There are few lots in the city of Boynton Beach that
have frontage which meets today's Code.
Mr. Howell thought the Council, in their wisdom, was trying
to be fair. He felt they realized they had many 50 foot
platted lots in the city, and that was why the Ordinance was
written like it was. If land was available, it gave a person
a chance to comply. Mr. Howell thought it was probably the
Council's wish that if land was there, the person would
exhaust those efforts to try and get that property to comply
with the zoning. He added that maybe it was a hardship on
the Board to decide whether that person has the ability but,
in all fairness, he thought it was something they had to
weigh in their own minds.
Chairman Thompson agreed it was to upgrade the City. Many
people were able to purchase land next door to them, but
then there were cases like the one before them tonight where
there had been land, but no purchase had been made by either
party on either side.
Mr. Slavin saw the property for the second time this morning.
and was talking to Mrs. George E. Nicholar, who lives at
721 N. E. 8th Avenue. Mrs. Nicholar was rather vehement in
what had taken place when the property was owned by the
Robert P. Brown family. It seemed that there was a strip of
land where there was one lot with 100 feet that was cut in
half. Part of it was sold to somebody, who immediately went
ahead and sunk pilings in, and applied for a variance. Mr.
Slavin did not know what happened, but he was told that the
title reverted back to the Brown family.
Mr. Slavin said to the east of this lot is a vacant lot, and
then there are two lots on the northwest corner of N. E. 7th

question. Lot 43 has pilings on it, a lot of weeds, and is
overgrown. Nothing is being done there. It looks like some
work was done on Lot 44. It is covered with a hay like
substance. Lot 45 is growing wild.
Mr. Slavin did not know whether an effort was made by Mrs.
Fisher to secure any land over there. For the sake of argu-
ment, if Mrs. Fisher wants to buy 10 or 20 feet, he wondered
what would become of Lot 45. Again, Mr. Slavin said they
have a blight in the area.
Mr. Slavin referred to minutes of what took place before the
Board a year ago with the Brown family, where they were pass-
ing title back and forth. Somebody applied for a variance.
That was subsequently found out, and Ms. Beverly Bottosto
applied for, and received, a variance on Lot 43 on January.9,
1984. Ms. Bottosto never closed on the lot, and it remained
in the ownership of a Mr. Fleming. Mr. Slavin did not know
who Mr. Fleming was. The contract for sale to Mrs. Fisher
was signed by Robert Brown. Mr. Slavin remarked that again,
the Board had this confusion.
Mr. Slavin continued by saying Mrs. Fisher, in good faith,
bought a piece of property to build a house on. He did not
know whether Mr. Brown smooth talked her or not, but she
bought into a hardship. The property was originally platted
as 50 feet. The previous City Council, in upgrading the city,
made it a 60 foot frontage. According to the survey, the
property is 105 feet in depth.
Mr. Slavin asked if Mr. Howell had seen the plans for the
building. Mr. Howell had not. Mr. Slavin asked if the
property would support a house that size. Mr. Howell
answered affirmatively and added that they could meet set-
backs.
Mr. Slavin thought they should adjudicate this tonight, and
he called attention to the past records and minutes they had
to go by. He could appreciate people who bought other land
and met the Code. Maybe they would say Mrs. Fisher should
buy more land, but Mr. Slavin pointed out that the price may
be prohibitive, and he wondered where the Board would go
from there.
When this first came before the Board, Chairman Thompson
recalled it was "quite sticky". originally, there were three
lots. Part of it was sold off. At that time, the owner
owned all three. There is a City Code that says if you own
- 6 -

exactly three lots, you can divide them up and make two lots.
At that particular time, one lot (Lot 44) was sold. Mr.
Slavin confirmed, from the Building Department's Fact Sheet,
that on January 9, 1984, a variance was given on Lot 43.
Chairman Thompson guessed they were faced with the same
problem they were faced with one year ago.
After discussion, Mr. Slavin said Robert P. Brown sold the
property to Mrs. Fisher. It was the same "badminton game".
When it came to selling the property, Mr. Brown came up as
the owner. Mr. Slavin read a letter dated June 27, 1986
from Flagler Title Company, saying a Corrected Warranty Deed
would be re-recorded to correct the buyer's name to read
"Goldie Fisher." He made further comments.
It seemed to Chairman Thompson that it was a problem the
Board had to deal with again, one way or the other, and they
had no other choice than to deal with it.
Mrs. Artis asked who Lots 43 and 45 belong to. Mr. Eney had
a sheet that indicated that Santina Sally DuBois bought Lot
43 in March of 1984, and Mr. Brown conveyed Lot 45 to his
mother (Patricia Brown). In granting a variance to Mrs.
Fisher, he felt it would put Mrs. DuBois and Mr. Brown's
mother in the same position as Mrs. Fisher. Mr. Howell
advised that would have been submitted. It appeared to Mr.
Eney that the other two lot owners were just waiting on the
sidelines to see if Mrs. Fisher would get a variance. If so,
they would have good cause to come in because their proper-
ties are isolated.
There was discussion as to whether the Brown family owned the
property prior to the upgrading of the Zoning Code, and
whether the lots would be grandfathered in. Mr. Eney noted
that Mr. Brown bought Lots 43 and 44 on the 27th of February,
1984 (paragraph *4, Building Department Fact Sheet for Meet-
ing of November 4, 1985 on property owned by Robert Brown).
In March of 1984, Chairman Thompson said Mr. Brown sold Lot
43 to Mrs. DuBois. Paragraph *6 of the Fact Sheet showed
that Mr. Brown sold his interest in Lot 45 to patricia M.
Brown on the 4th of September, 1985, just a month or so
before the Board of Adjustment meeting on November 4, 1985.
Chairman Thompson recalled the question came up as to why Mr.
Brown gave a quit-claim deed to sell the property.
Mr. Eney observed that apparently the Board of Adjustment
(BOA) determined at one time to give Lo~ 43 the variance
- 7 -

requested. Chairman Thompson confirmed that a variance was
given on January 9, 1984, but they never closed on the
property and it still remained in the ownership of Mr.
Fleming. Mr. Howell reminded the Board that the variance
stays with the lot, no matter who owns it.
Chairman Thompson guessed they kept going back to Lots 43,
44 and 45 because they were tied in together when they first
came before the Board.
Mr. Howell informed Mrs. Artis that someone could build on
Lot 43 if they met the setbacks. Mrs. Artis ascertained
that Lot 45 could come before the Board, but not Lot 43.
Mr. Howell pointed out that the Board was now faced with a
little bit different situation, if they had three lots
before, because they now had two lots. He thought they had
some legalities here. Mr. Howell recalled that the Board's
Attorney had advised them at one time.
Chairman Thompson was sure the Recording Secretary had a
copy of the Fact Sheet for the record and said it was in
reference to all that the Board had been talking about. A
copy of said Fact Sheet is attached to the original copy of
these minutes as Addendum A.
Mr. Slavin read a letter from Bert Keehr, Deputy Building
Official, sent by certified mail on March 31, 1986 to Robert
Peter Brown, that said it was his (Keehr'sl opinion that
Lot 44, "regardless of the owner, will not ever qualify for
a variance in lot size. "A copy of this letter is
attached to the original copy of these minutes as Addendum
B.
Mr. Slavin said the Warranty Deed dated June 6, 1986
reflected the sale of property by Robert P. Brown to Goldie
Fisher. He brought out the fact that Mr. Brown knew what he
was doing when he sold Mrs. Fisher Lot 44. Mr. Brown got
out from under. Supposedly, there is no more land for him
to build on and, unfortunately, Mrs. Fisher was in the middle
of the whole situation.
Mrs. Artis determined that legally, Mrs. Fisher's lot was
landlocked because Lot 43 already has a variance, and Lot 45
is owned by another person who is not going to sell. Mr.
Howell knew of nothing in that situation that would keep an
owner from selling. In other words, if whoever got a
variance on Lot 43 owned all three lots, he did not know of
any way legally that the City would have anything to say as
- 8 -
MINUTES-BOARD OF ADJUSTMENT
BOYNTON BEACH, FLORIDA
NOVEMBER 10, 1986
to whether he sold the lots or not. Mr. Howell was sure
when Mr. Keehr saw the situation, he was probably trying to
get Mr. Brown to divide that into two lots, which would have
been ideal and would have been the wishes of the City fathers.
Motion
Mr. Gordon thought looking at the case a second time was
enough. In his opinion, it was much nicer to look at a new
home than a vacant lot which, as they have seen throughout
Boynton Beach, turns into a City dump. Therefore, he moved
to grant the variance, seconded by Mrs. Artis. A roll call
vote on the motion was taken by Mrs. Ramseyer, and the
motion carried 6-0.
Discussion
Chairman Thompson explained that he voted the way he did
because he felt a hardship had been placed on the property.
It was too bad, in this particular case, that Mr. Brown was
"two or three steps ahead of the City." In doing this, Mr.
Brown placed hardships on two pieces of property that you
could either build on or let stay there and collect debris
from the City. Chairman Thompson expressed that it was a
sad case, and he explained.
If the Board had turned this down, another year would have
passed, and the property would be vacant and like it is now.
Chairman Thompson felt it was too nice a piece of property
to just sit and not be used. He hoped the design would
enhance the beauty of the neighborhood.
NEXT MEETING
Chairman Thompson announced the next meeting will be on
Monday, December 8, 1986.
ADJOURNMENT
There being no further business to come before the Board,
Mr. Gordon moved, seconded by Mr. Slavin, to adjourn, and
the meeting properly adjourned at 7:53 P. M.

variance with the Building Department for Lot 44, Block 4, Lake Additi,
to Boynton. The owner of Lot 44 was Mr. Robert Brown, who also owned
Lot 45 at that time.
After a waiting period, Miss Simmel, did not prove ownership, therefor,
Mr. Brown is now the applicant for this variance.
2. Mr. Robert Brown, the applicant for the subject lot, applied for and
received a variance for abutting lot to the east "(Lot 45). On
September 12th, 1983 at the meeting, Mr. Brown stated it would be a
financial burden on him.to have to buy the two (2) Lots 43 and 44
(west of Lot 45) as the.owner wanted $25,000.00. Owner of these lots
was Mr. Carl Fle~ng.
3. Miss Beverly Bottosto applied for and received a variance on Lot 43
on January 9th, 1984. Miss Bottosto never closed on this lot, it
remained in the ownership of Mr. Fleming.
4. Mr. Brown purchased Lots 43 & 44 from Mr. Fleming on the 27th of
February 1984.
5. Mr.'Brown sold Lot 43 to a Mrs. Santina Debois in March of 1984.
6. Mr. Brown, by Quit Claim Deed, sold his interest in Lot 45 an the

Dea::r; Mr. Brown:
,
lt has' com~ to the attention of the Building Department that you
have' started to-improve your property on N. E. 8th Avenue, specifically,
Lot 45, Lake Addition to Boynton. This department has not yet received
your application and final plans for cons~ruction; therefore, I wou+d
liKe to bring to your attention a few facts.
/"
Our records indica~e, you are still the owner of Lot 44 which abuts
the subject Lot 45 that was denied a variance just last year. with the
past record of ownerships 'of Lots 43, 44 and 45 by yourself and others,
it is my opinion that Lot '44, regard:tess of the owner, will not ever
qualify for a variance in lot size and therefore will not be able ,to be
a builtout .lot.. '
Under the circumstances, I would like to suggest you include in your
~lanning for Lot 45, Lot 44 with Lot 45 as a single building site and
avoid leaving an unusable lot.

Recorded in Plat Book 11, Page 71
Palm Beach County Records
Secretary Mearns noted that there are presently other homes
in this subdivision which are built on lots with 50'
frontage.
Richard Welch, representative for Mr. Maddock, noted that
this lot is presently in Mr. Maddock's father's estate. In
order to clear the estate, the lot is to be sold. Mr.
Welch stated that they have a person who is interested in
purchasing the lot for the purpose of building a single
family home on the lot as his primary residence. He noted
that the lot was platted in 1925 when it was zoned R-1A.
The zoning requirements have been changed by the City since
that time.
Chairman Thompson asked if the intent was to sell the
property and Mr. Welch stated that it was being marketed
through his company (Campbell Realty) and he is the agent.
The sale is pending upon the purchaser being able to build a
single family residence on the lot.
In answer to Mrs. Solomon's question, Mr. Welch replied that
there is a home on the east side of this property which is
built on a 50' lot. He also stated that on the south side
on N.E. Tenth Avenue near the Intracoastal, there is new
construction on a 50' lot.
Mrs. Solomon asked about the safety factors if the Board
decided to allow a home to be built on the lot. Mr. Newbold
stated that the structure would meet all setbacks and no

safety hazard would be created. Mr. Mearns asked if any
attempt had been made to purchase a small portion of the lot
adjacent to this property. Mr. Welch stated that it had
been very difficult to contact the owners. On the east side
there is an existing dwelling and the land to the west side
is owned by the party who owns the dwelling to the west. He
noted that this piece of property is deadlocked between
those properties. Mr. Welch referred the Board to his site
plan which was attached to his application. There was more
discussion regarding property in the surrounding area. Mr.
Newbold clarified that only the lots which are adjacent to
this property have been addressed as the other lots would
be of no use to the owner of this property.
As there were no other questions for Mr. Welch, Chairman
Thompson thanked him for his participation.
Chairman Thompson asked if anyone wished to speak in favor
of granting the request. As no one wished to speak in
favor, he asked if anyone wished to speak against granting
the request.
Walter Lacey, 629 N.E. 9th Avenue stated that he has lived
in Boynton Beach all his life, and at his present residence
for the past 28 years. He stated that all the homes in his
area are nice ones and all the lots have more than 50' front-
age. Mr. Lacey stated that his home has 2,200 square feet.
He noted that there is a vacant 50' lot adjacent to his prop-
erty, and he did not want to see a precedent set by
allowing the applicant to build on the 50' lot. He felt
that the property values would depreciate in the subdivision
if people were allowed to build on the 50' lots. Mr. Lacey
stated that he lives northwest of the property in question.
He noted that there are no homes built on 9th Avenue on 50'
lots, but he was not sure about the other streets in the
subdivision.
Chairman Thompson stated that there are some homes on 50'
lots south of Mr. Lacey. They were built some time ago and
he was not sure if any construction had been done recently.
As there were no more questions, Chairman Thompson thanked
Mr. Lacey for his interest. Mr. Lacey was the only person
to speak against granting the variance. Chairman Thompson
also not~d that he had received no written communications
regarding the property in question.
Mrs. Solomon asked if building smaller homes in the same
area as larger ones would reduce the value of the homes.
Chairman Thompson stated that he had not found this to be
the case. He noted that in all developments, there are

requests such as this to

He felt there would be other
come before the Board and they
on a case by case basis.
Mr. Boyar referred to the list of residents in the neigh-
borhood and noted that most own rather substantial lots. He
added that he hesitated to allow someone to build on a
smaller lot on a street with mostly larger lots. He
referred to the code noting that there was a purpose in
changing the code.
-
Mr. Mearns noted that no correspondence had been received
from owners of adjacent property.
Mrs. Solomon noted that this piece of property is land-
locked since the zoning was changed. This came about
through no fault of the owner. She noted that the structure
would be built within safety guidelines and setback require-
ments. She felt that this would cause a hardship for the
owner if the request were denied.
Mr. Eney noted that this is an older neighborhood and there
are other homes on 50' lots. He referred to the fact that
the piece of property in question has been in Mr. Maddock's
family for over 40 years. The zoning has followed rather
than led in the type of development desired for this area.
He added that 30 years ago, it would have been acceptable to
build a house on the 50' lot, but not by the code today.
Mr. Eney noted that there is still much land in the sub-
division which is for sale. He noted that a home built on
the lot should fit into the neighborhood.
Vice Chairwoman Artis stated that the lot was in conformance
at one time and that should be taken into consideration.
Chairman Thompson noted that a hardship has been created for
this property owner. He noted that in order to upgrade the
older sections of the City to allow the new sections to
build up in a particular way, some problems have been
created. These problems have to be worked out. In the case
of a piece of property which is landlocked, something has
to be done.
Mr. Newbold stated that with R-1A zoning a home must be at
least 1,500 square feet in size. Chairman Thompson stated
that there should be no problem building a 1,500 square foot
home on this piece of property. Mr. Welch stated that the
prospective buyer was proposing to build a 1,500 square foot,
single story home on the property. He noted that the home
would meet all the setbacks required and the garage/carport
would be on the front portion.

Mr. Eney moved to grant the request for variance. Motion
was seconded by Vice Chairwoman Artis. Mr. Eney stated the
reason he wished to approve the request is due to the fact
that the proposed home would be in conformance with other
homes in the area and would not detract from them as there
is no set pattern of structures in the neighborhood. Vice
Chairwoman Artis stated that the property was at one time in
conformance and came into nonconformance after the zoning
change. She noted that the property is landlocked.

MINUTES - BOARD OF ADJUSTMENT
HARCH 10, 1980
Mrs. Marie B. Raesly, 210 Horizons East, informed the Board
she has had this lot since 1972. She tried twice to build,
but was not able to obtain funds. At her age, it is difficult
to obtain a loan. This year, she decided to put the lot up for
sale. Up until that time, she had no offers whatsoever for this
lot. Realizing she had to get rid of it, she gave it to a real
estate agent.
Mr. Blum referred to visiting the property and explained that
upon measuring the lot, he found it to be approximately 3" short
of the 50' width. He also spoke to the neighbor, Mr. Dembeck,
and was told he offered to buy the lot, but was turned down.
Mrs. Raesly replied that she has received no offer, verbally or
written. Approximately two years ago when she was there mowing
the lawn, Mr. Dembeck said this lot was worth about $1,800 and
she did not consider that an offer.
Mr. Blum continued that all the other buildings are wider and
longer. According to the measurements of this lot, he does not
think a home could be built without hindering the other homes.
Mrs. Raesly informed him the other lots are 50 ft. and she does
not think a few inches should detract from her lot. The deed
reads 50 ft.
Mrs. Czufin asked if the zoning and requirements were the same
when this lot was purchased in 1972 and Mr. Keehr replied that
the current zoning requirements went into effect in June 1975,
but he is not sure what the requirements were prior to then.
He clarified that prior to March 10, 1978, this lady would not
be required to have a variance no matter what the requirements
were. The question now is selling the lot.
Mr. Slavin clarified that she has placed this lot for sale with
a real estate agent, but has had no offers and Mrs. Raesly
clarified that she has had offers through the real estate, but
did not receive any offers prior to that. Mr. Slavin clarified
that she has bonafide offers for the property and Mrs. Raesly
replied affirmatively and added she brought them with her to
show the Board.
Mr. Slavin asked if this is the only lot on the block and Mrs.
Raesly replied that she is not sure. Mr. Keehr clarified that
there is no adjoining property. He added that the survey shows
it to be a couple inches shy of 50 ft., but he doesn't think
that constitutes any problem.
Chairman Thompson clarified that at the time of purchase in 1972,
Mrs. Raesly could have built on the lot and at this time, she
can build if she wishes to. As it stands though, this lot is
landlocked. Mrs. Czufin added that this property can be sold
without getting a variance and Chairman Thompson agreed, if a
buyer will make the purchase under the existing conditions.

Mr. Slavin stated it would be a stamp of approval with giving a
variance and Mrs. Czufin stated that Mrs. Raesly is protecting
the buyer.
Mr. Zimmerman asked if Mrs. Raesly had listed this lot as a non-
conforming lot with the realtor and Mrs. Raesly replied that the
realtor contacted her and must ha~had some record of the lot.
It was not mentioned whether it was conforming or non-conforming.
She received a letter from the real estate agent and they had all
the information.
Chairman Thompson asked if anyone else wanted to speak in favor
of granting this variance.
Mrs. Theresa Annetta, 653 N. E. 8th Avenue, advised that several
neighbors she has spoken to think this is a good idea instead of
having an empty lot and a home should be built on it. She agrees
a home should be built on it. About four to five houses down,
a variance was granted to build a house on a 50 ft. lot and
there were no objections and the house looks better than tfie
weeds. Mr. Blum stated as long as she was talking about beauti-
fying the area and building a house, didn't she think the neigh-
boring parties should buy it and beautify it rather than having
a house built in between with one on top of the other? Mrs.
Annetta informed him that all the houses are built on 50 ft.
lots there. Mrs. Czufin referred to Mr. Blum's question being
out of order and Chairman Thompson clarified that the type of
house, construction and design is not a concern of this Board.
Mr. Slavin asked if a variance is granted, does it automatically
mean the Building Department will grant a permit to the future
buyer or will they have to seek a variance again and Mr. Keehr
replied the buyer will not have to come before the Board again.
If the Board gives this lady the right to sell this property as
a buildable lot, then nobody will have to come back before this
Board.
Chairman Thompson ascertained there were no further speakers in
favor of the granting of this variance and asked those wanting
to speak against the granting of this variance to come forward.
Mr. John Boes, 643 N. E. 8th Avenue, stated he thinks the other
residents in the neighborhood have some rights. He has a peti-
tion signed by those opposed to the variance, which he submitted
to the Board. When he bought his property, he wouldn't have
bought it knowing a house would be built there. He was under
the impression the lot was too narrow to build on. Had he known
a house would be built on it, he would not have paid top dollar
for his house. He does not understand the hardship as he would
be willing to buy the property. He doesn't want to see it deve-
loped. If Mrs. Raesly can sell her property without a variance,
that should be worth some consideration. If a house is built, it
will depreciate the property surrounding this lot.

Mrs. Czufin asked where he lives in connection to this property
and Mr. Boes informed her that he lives next to it on the east
side. Mr. Zimmerman questioned how many signatures were on the
petition and Mr. Boes replied that there are approximately 14.
Mrs. Czufin asked if he had any desire to buy this property and
Mr. Boes replied that he would much prefer to buy it rather than
see it developed. Mrs. Czufin asked if he had made an offer and
Mr. Boes replied that he has not had the opportunity to talk to
the owner. He has talked to neighbors about the availability
and was told the owner would not sell. Mrs. Czufin asked if he
felt the 10 ft. difference was that much and Mr. Boes replied
affirmatively.
Chairman Thompson referred to the possibility of both parties
being able to reach a satisfactory agreement and Mr. Boes agreed
this was possible. Chairman Thompson referred to both parties
reaching an agreement with neither party having the advantage
over the other and Mr. Keehr stated the Board may be out of order
in this respect. He suggested that the Assistant City Attorney
comment.
Mr. Wolf asked when Mr. Boes purchased his property and Mr.
Boes replied in February 1979.
Mr. Wolf stated this is an unusual circumstance and not the
normal variance request. There is no additional property avail-
able to be purchased. The City passed an ordinance saying this
property could not be built on and now the City is basically
saying there is no reasonable use. This may be putting the City
of Boynton Beach in a condition where they may have to end up
buying the property. Whether the neighbor wants to buy the
property would have to take effect outside of this Board. The
City's position is that a hardship was created through the City
and there is no way this woman could take care of it and there
is no effective use of the property.
Mr. .Boes clarified that when the property was purchased, it
could be built on and did the hardship occur on March 10, 1978,
after the zoning laws changed? Mr. Keehr informed him that
at that time, the City said the property could not be sold to
someone else and the buyer could not build without going before
the Board of Adjustment. The owner can obtain a building permit
for it.
Mr. Boes stated that to build on this lot would lower the quality
of life in the neighborhood. If people are stacked next to each
other, it will not maintain itself.

Mr. John Dembeck, 633 N. E. 8th Avenue, advised that he lives
next to this property to the west. He agrees a house should be
built on a 50 ft. lot, but not on a lot under 50 ft. Other
neighbors wanted to buy the lot. A florist wants to grow flowers
on it. The lot is 3" under 50 ft. and will an additional vari-
ance be needed? Mrs. Czufin questioned where the 3" under 50 ft.
comes from as it says 50 ft. on the application and Mr. Keehr
pointed out that the survey shows 49.88 ft. and added this is
not unusual in a platted subdivision. Mr. Dembeck told about
an agent putting a sign on the lot and a surveyor taking mea-
surements. He asked if there is supposed to be 15 ft. between
houses and Mr. Keehr replied affirmatively. Mr. Dembeck clari-
fied that a house couldn't be built more than 34'9" wide. Mr.
Keehr informed him that a scale is used on non-conforming lots
with a percentage used. Mr. Dembeck clarified that with taking
15 ft. between each side, it will be an oblong house and Mr.
Howell advised that only 7~ ft. is needed on each side. Mr.
Dembeck stated rather than seeing a house built there, let the
lady say what she wants and the neighbors will buy it. He
would rather see flowers on the lot. He talked to her a couple
weeks ago and she said she would rather not say anything and he
understood her nephew was getting the lot.
Mr. George Nicholar, 711 N. E. 8th Avenue, referred to his house
being on \ acre and advised that most of the homes are on large
lots. He is tired hearing about hardships. Ten years ago when
he came to Florida, it was a nice area. However, they are put-
ting up little places allover the area. This house could only
be 35 feet wide and he has lived in larg~army barracks. Several
people have talked about buying it. He would hate to see a
little long narrow house go up on this lovely street and devalue
the rest of the homes. Mr. Zimmerman referred to his comment
that this lady does not have a hardship and asked if he meant
to imply that it was not a hardship because she did not build
on it? Mr. Nicholar clarified that several people want to buy
it, but she probably wants to sell to a developer for a larger
profit. He does not think we should continue making profits off
the land in Florida.
A man from the audience advised that he takes care of this lot
and doesn't throw junk on it like the fellow next door does.
Mrs. Raesly stated she just wanted to correct something which
her neighbor said about not having the opportunity to offer her
a price for the lot and advised that she has had a sale sign on
the lot for quite awhile. Also, she bought the lot from the same
people who sold the adjoining house. She also noticed the survey
stakes on the west side go into the neighbor's flowers, shrubs
and trees.

Mr. Boes asked if there was any consideration of a hardship for
someone who bought the property thinking it was not going to be
developed? He would not have bought his house knowing that lot
could be developed. Mrs. Czufin clarified that when he bought
his property, he thought there would be no house on that lot and
Mr. Boes agreed and added that he checked with neighbors and the
realtor and undersood this lot would not be developed because it
was too narrow.
Mrs. Czufin asked Mr. Boes how wide his property is and Mr. Boes
replied that it is 75 ft. Mrs. Czufin asked Mr. Dembeck how wide
his property is and he replied 50 ft. which is the average lot.
Mr. Keehr clarified that this sUbdivision was platted in 50 ft.
lots. Mr. Boes stated that his lot is 75 ft. and the lots vary
from 70 to 90 feet. Mr. Keehr clarified that when this subdivi-
sion was accepted by the City, they were all 50 ft. lots, but in
the meantime they have been increased.
Chairman Thompson stated he knows the position Mr. Boes is speak-
ing from; however, he mentioned checking with the neighbors when
purchasing the property and this is the mistake many people have
made. The records at City Hall should be checked.
Chairman Thompson asked if any communications had been received
and Mr. Gordon read a notation on the notice of public hearing
from Mrs. Bertha Stroshein, 653 N. E. 7th Avenue, requesting
the Board to vote No.
Chairman Thompson opened discussion to the Board members.
Mr. Zimmerman referred to this lot presently being in good shape
and being mowed nicely and stated he thinks if we have any inten-
tion of granting a variance, we ought to protect the people from
damage a new buyer may do instead of building on it. It could
be left a weed patch. Possibly we should consider a time limita-
tion where the variance would expire if no construction takes
place to encourage the buyer to build or not buy it.
Mr. DiSarli stated that he visited the property and it is nice
and kept well. He thinks the two adjoining houses should have
the right to complain, it shouldn't be sold to someone to build
a smaller house, and they should have the opportunity to buy it
instead of a house being built on it. Mrs. Czufin clarified that
whether the neig~rswant to buy it has nothing to do with this
Board.
Mr. Zimmerman clarified that his suggestion was to grant the
variance to be valid for a year, which would give the new buyer
only that much time to build. This is within our authority.
Mrs. Czufin agreed and added we should know what is going to be
put there and when and Chairman Thompson informed her that we
cannot see what it will be.

Mrs. Artis clarified that as it is now, Mrs. Raesly can build.
A variance would mean she can sell to another person to build.
The complaittfrom the neighbors is that the neighbors have more
frontage. Mrs. Czufin clarified that the nextdoor neighbor has
only 50 ft. Mrs. Artis continued that the hardship is that Mrs.
Raesly is at an age when she cannot obtain a mortgage and Mrs.
Czufin added that she thinks the hardship is Mrs. Raesly pur-
chased this lot when this zoning was not in effect. Now, she
doesn't want to build. Of course, people who have invested in
property don't want to see anyhing built detrimental to the area.
Also, the woman bought the property planning to build, but has
had to change her mind. It seems a shame when somebody has in-
vested in a lot and has paid taxes and kept it up that she is
unable to sell it. Several people in disagreement have the same
sized lot. Why should this woman be penalized because she did
not build?
Chairman Thompson clarified that she is not being denied the
right to build on her property, but if a variance is turned
down, we are denying her the right to sell. Mr, Wolf clari-
fied that she can build on it, but cannot sell it. However,
she can sell it to anyone willing to buy it knowing they could
not build a house on it without a variance. Mrs. Czufin added
that it would be a sale with restrictions.
Mr. Wolf referred to having reasonable use and stated in reason-
able use, people have the right to sell their property. By not
grating a variance, the City may be effectively denying her the
right to sell her property. This would be putting some restraints
on her ability to sell the property and that is close to denying
the use of the property. Under law, the government cannot usually
restrict a party from selling her property. When this plat was
recorded, the City and County allowed the plat to be recorded
with 50 ft. lots. The woman had one 50 ft. lot which was legal.
Now the City says she cannot sell it without getting a variance
from this Board. The City has created basically a hardship.
It would be a different story if she had two lots, but we are
talking only about one lot. This is not the normal variance.
By denying this, it is possibly denying the next owner of that
property all reasonable use of the property. The only thing which
can be done is to build a house on it unless the neighbors buy it.
Mr. Zimmerman asked if he thought granting one year's time for
a variance for construction to be started would be a resonable
use for this lady and Mr. Wolf replied affirmatively and added
if someone did not take advantage of the variance within that
time, it would be a different situation. However, the particular
facts of why they did not take advantage of the variance within
the one year would have to be considered.

Mr. Boes asked if the 14 people who signed the petition didn't
have some rights and Chairman Thompson replied affirmatively,
but we should not deny one person her rights since she owns the
property. The hardships of each are different.
Mr. Zimmerman moved that we grant this variance with a time
limit of one year from this date and that the variance expires
to whomever the lot is sold to if they don't start construction
within that one year. Mrs. Czufin seconded the motion.
Mr. Slavin offered an amendment and referred to Mrs. Raesly
mentioning that she has received offers for the property and
stated he is quite sure she can sell the lot and doesn't think
one year's time is needed and thinks the time should be six months.
Mr. Zimmerman replied that he is willing to change his motion to
a six months time limit and Mrs. Czufin agreed. Mr. Keehr sug-
gested there be a statement about permitting. He would rather it
read that a permit be pulled within that time rather than start
construction. Mr. Zimmerman accepted that change and Mrs. Czufin
agreed.
As requested, Mrs. Kruse clarified the motion would be to grant
this variance with a time limit of six months from this date and
the variance expires to whomever the lot is sold to if they don't
pull a building permit within that six months period. Mrs.
Kruse took a roll call vote and the motion carried 7-0 with all
members voting in favor.
Chairman Thompson asked if Mrs. Raesly understood the restric-
tions on this variance and Mrs. Raesly replied negatively.
Chairman Thompson informed her the Board has granted permission
to sell this property, but there is a six months period attached
to it. Mrs. Raesly questioned when this six months period was
and Chairman Thompson replied that it is from this date. Mrs.
Raesly clarified that the six month period starts March 10, 1980.
Mr. Keehr further clarified that within the next six months, she
must sell this property and have the buyer pull a permit in
order for this variance to be upheld. Mrs. Raesly asked if con-
struction must be started right away when getting a building
permit and Mr. Keehr replied negatively, but there is a 90 day
period allowed before starting.
Mrs. Raesly asked if she would receive notification of this deci-
sion and Mr. Howell informed her the Building Department will
send her a letter confirming this. Chairman Thompson added that
she will also receive a copy of the minutes after they are ap-
proved.

Mr. Dembeck asked if Mrs. Raesly could say what she wants and
they will pay it and Mr. Zimmerman informed him that Mrs. Raesly
can sell to anybody now. Mr. Dembeck referred to it being a
building site now and Mr. Slavin replied that he could buy it and
not build on it.
Mr. Zimmerman stated he thinks this is quite reasonable since
Mrs. Raesly has owned the property for eight years and we are
giving her six months more to sell it and giving the neighbors
consideration.
Mr. Boes questioned the result if Mrs. Raesly does not respond
to the offer given by the neighbors and Mr. Gordon informed him
that is not the Board's business. Mr. Boes asked if this deci-
sion can be appealed and Mr. Zimmerman replied affirmatively,

Mr. Gordon read the above application and the reason for the
variances requested that the applicant has been approved by HUD
to construct eight single family detached dwellings of 1,300 sq.
ft. on each lot and without the variances, the total project of
93 units will be jeopardized.
Mr. Gene Moore, attorney representing the applicant, referred
to the applicant having been working on this project for a num-
ber of months and explained that they took over this project
from various developers planning to bring decent housing to
this area. He also explained the overall project has been ap-
proved by HUD under the Section 8 Program. These will be
rental units. They will be locked in on a rental basis for a
minimum of 30 years. The overall project is 93 units. This
particular application deals with eight individual lots. The
variances would allow the owner to utilize the property for
single family dwellings. It is a unique subdivision with lots
shaped in curves, etc. With the financing situation what it is,
any deviation from the. plan as approved by HUD would require
going back and starting the project over. They have worked
with the City Council and Housing Authority and everybody has
pulled together to get this project off the ground. This
developer can make this project a reaHty. He requests the
cooperation of the Board to bring this project into reaHty.
He then introduced Mr. Jeff Osslander, representing the deve-
loper, to show the plans.

Mr. Jeff Osslanjer explained the plan for the project consist-
ing of four scattered sites. The variance request covers four
out lots to the west and four out lots along N. W. 2nd Street.
All the units will be 1,300 squre feet and will meet the setback
requirements. These are proposed to be built for renters. The
Palm Beach County Housing Authority will be under a management
contract and will be responsible for them. They have built
other housing in Palm Beach County in cooperation with the Palm
Beach County Housing Authority and it was their recommendation
to take over this project. He then read a letter from HUD ad-
vising all processing has been completed and they can start con-
struction. This variance is needed to apply for a building
permit and start construction.
Mr. Zimmerman referred to N. W. 7th Court and N. W. 2nd Street
not being paved in this area and asked if they were going to
construct these streets and Mr. Osslander replied affirmatively
and explained they will be completed as needed to service each
and every lot. They will meet City requirements and dedicate
to the City.
Chairman Thompson questioned how these eight single family houses
would jeopardize the entire project and Mr. Os slander replied
that three houses will be lost if this variance is denied. He
explained that private financing has been obtained and it is im-
portant to keep the scope and plan of this project intact. They
are dealing on a direct basis with Flagship Bank and a private
owner to acquire these parcels. They acquired them when build-
ing was allowed and only found out later that variances would be
required. They were only allowed 30 days to submit the proposal
and had to prepare it quickly. These mistakes do happen when
under time constraints and in competition. They went in with 93
units on what they believed were buildable sites. They were
given the parcels by the Palm Beach County Housing Authority
which they arranged for and had to move quickly when subsidy
funds were~ailable. The federal government will assist the
tenants in the rental payments. This will fill an important
gap in the overall redevelopment plan for this area. This is
the only new housing program for this area.
Mr. Slavin referred to it being private financing and Mr.
Os slander agreed. Mr. 'Slavin questioned HUD's part and Mr.
Osslander informed him that HUD subsidizes the rent. Mrs.
Czufin referred to the 30 year rental and Mr. Osslander ex-
plained that the term of the contract says 30 years and when
filing a covenant, they must operate as a rental project for
30 years and the Palm Beach County Housing Authority will re-
tain the option to purchase after ten years if they choose to
sell to them.

Mr. Zimmerman stated several years ago when the Housing Authority
was first being organized and came before the City Council, he
got the general impression that all this housing would abide by
the City codes. He asked if Mr. Osslander was aware of this and
Mr. Osslander replied that generally when they go into these pro-
posals with the government, they try to check out the require-
ments with the local municipality. Essentially what happened is
that they were not aware of in the preliminary agreements with
the owners that there was a change in zoning and the lots were
non-conforming. They were platted and they checked the zoning
codes and felt there would be no problem. It was an oversight,
but they were given 30 days in a competitive atmosphere to apply.
They don't want to lose any units.
Chairman Thompson referred to a total of 93 units being arrived
at and stated evidently something was checked. He knows the
problem of time might have been a factor. Mr. Osslander re-
plied they did check. Since there were eight platted lots,
they planned to build eight homes. Only eight single family
lots were part of the packet. They designated eight single
family units for those lots to accommodate the existing zoning.
Mr. Moore added there were at least two or three other developers
attempting to bring this project into being. They did basically
all the FHA approval work based on the existing ordinances at
that time. Basically when these gentlemen took over, they at-
tempted to revive that which existed and there was a time ele-
ment. Obviously there were some changes in the zoning codes
between the time of inception and the taking over. In an at-
tempt to accelerate to get FHA approval, they pushed through
with what was before FHA with a nominal check into the code.
It was simply a matter of revising prior approval with FHA.
Chairman Thompson referred to the previous plans being for 67
units and Mr. Osslander informed him that another site was
added. Mr. Moore added these units were part of an overall
project. There was no problem on the multi-family areas. These
eight lots have been included as part of the proposed plan under
this program.
Mrs. Artis asked if the builder plans to leave a percentage
for beautification and Mr. Osslander replied affirmatively.
Mrs. Artis referred to the code allowing 40% lot coverage and
Mr. Os slander informed her these would be 25% lot coverage.
Mr. Keehr clarified they are not going to exceed the maximum
lot coverage. Mrs. Artis commented that since these will be
located on a main thoroughfare, she is concerned about the beau-
tification.

Mr. Wolf asked when these lots were purchased and Mr. Osslander
replied they are under contract. Mr. Wolf questioned who the
present owner is and Mr. Moore informed him that Flagship Bank
is who got them from Leonard Smith on foreclosure. Mr. Wolf
asked when they acquired them and Mr. Moore replied about two
years ago.
Mr. Wolf referred to combining Lots 116, 117, 118 and 119 to
get three complying lots and Mr. Os slander informed him that
three units would be lost if the requirements are met. Mr.
Moore added the whole FHA project would have to be started over.
Mr. Wolf stated he was trying to understand the exact hardship
and normally an economic disadvantage is not considered a hard-
ship. Mr. Moore stated it is not as much their hardship as it
is for the people living in the area. Mr. Osslander added there
is a relocation hardship. This is the only housing which has
been planned and approved to qualify for relocation housing for
the people living on 10th Avenue. The planners have used ~his
in the master plan as 93 homes approved under the Section 8
Program. If three homes are lost, it means some people cannot
be relocated because of the City's inability. The City is par-
ticularly short of rental housing right now.
Mr. Wolf asked if this project has been approved by any City
Boards and Mr. Os slander replied that it has been approved by
the Palm Beach County Housing Authority, Boynton Beach Housing
Authority, and the planners have reviewed it and approved it.
They have been working with the City for six months. This was
included in the planning statement as 93 units. He knows the
City Council is aware of it, but they have not been asked to
take any action.
Mr. Wolf clarified that if these three units are lost, some
people to be relocated would not be, but what else does it do
to the project and Mr. Osslander replied they are under a pro-
blem with financing difficulties with the percentage rising.
If they don't get this going, it will go by the way like the
last two efforts.
Mrs. Artis asked if a delay on their part would cause a hardship
on the people who have to relocate and Mr. Osslander replied that
the program of acquisition has been started in a number of areas.
He explained the Housing Authority's program of renovation of
existing buildings with the result being to decrease density.
Units must be provided in the City to absorb these people.
They are trying to get this project underway for that purpose.

Mr. Slavin asked if the City Planning Commission of Boynton

City Planner and Technical Review Board know there are 93
units in the process of being approved, but they have not seen
any prints. Mr. Osslander advised that he has been coordinat-
ing this with Mr. Annunziato for six months. Mr. Annunziato
has had the site plan for that period of time, ever since it
was initially proposed to HUD.
Chairman Thompson asked if anyone else wanted to speak in favor
of the granting of this variance and received no response. He
then asked if anyone wanted to speak against the granting of
these variances and the fallowing came before the Board.
Mr. Ezell Hester, 416 N. W. 7th Avenue,stated he agrees there
is a need for housing, but the housing should be built accord-
ing to the codes. When this property was taken over, the lots
were platted at 50 ft.; but when the purchase was made, the
code said the lots had to be 60 ft. He doesn't think we should
go against the codes although the property is platted in 50 ft.
lots. He purchased 75 ft. for his house. In looking at houses
on 50 ft. lots, it is apparent how congested it is. He suggests
that three houses be put on each parcel. He does not see how
this would jeopardize the project as these two parcels are not
contiguous to the main rental units. He opposes this because
he thinks they should be on at least 60 ft. lots. Even the lot
area is lacking. There is a need for housing and the people
understand that, but they should not be congested any more than
it is.
Mr. Leroy Deale, 304 N. W. 8th Avenue, referred to these lots
being adjacent to his property and advised that he could have
built on a 50 ft. lot, but built on larger. He thinks it will
be too congested to build on 50 ft. lots. The owners in that
area have lots more than 50 ft. and the houses are large. This
is the only decent neighborhood they have. He then submitted a
petition from the property owners in the area objecting to this.
Mr. Zimmerman stated the one group of houses along N. W. 2nd
Street presents a greater problem than the other four lots as
there isn't enough square footage for three lots conforming to
the code. It would have to be reduced to two to meet the code
requirements.
Mr. Deale stated he thinks they should stay within the code and
objects to the both groups of DUL
Mrs. Blanche H. Girtman, 912 N. W. 3rd Street, stated she has

Mrs. Girtman continued that everyone is aware the northwest
section of Boynton Beach has been called every mentionable
thing. This project will breed another Cherry Hill. Since
1975, she has been working with Community Development to im-
prove that area. Now someone wants to relieve the housing sit-
uation by bringing into one of the nicer areas some reduced
sized houses. She doesn't care if HUD comes down and oversees
it themselves, it will be an unwelcome area with that sized
housing and all those people. The homes in that area are
priced at $30,000 up and a development should not be put here.
The City did not approve it because it is below code. The
City would not allow it in Chapel Hill or Golfview Harbour.
They are tired of being a dumping ground in that area and
being labelled with different various labels. She is against
this because it will devalue her property. This is within 400
feet of her property and will degrade it. She knows it is not
an exclusive area, but it is where she wants to live. She
wants the area developed. There are nice homes there. This
developer wants to build rental houses there and renters don't
take care of their homes like home owners do. She is against
this request. To take away the required land and build these
houses, it will look like rat houses. She is tired of the
northwest section being a dumping ground.
Mr. Ridolfi referred to visiting the area and stated he was
honestly amazed at some of the beautiful homes which are there.
He talked to some of the people coming out of the church across
the street when he was there. What Mrs. Girtman has stated about
the area is the truth.
Mr. Howell advised that this zoning would permit a 1,250 sq. ft.
house and Mrs. Girtman replied the lot size is being reduced to
50 ft. Mr. Howell advised the homes will be 1,300 sq. ft. and
Mrs. Girtman clarified that she wants decent sized lots. Mrs.
Czufin asked if she mainly objected to renters occupying these
homes and Mrs. Girtman replied that she is against that too.
Mr.Keehr added that it is zoned R-IA which is single family
residential and Mrs. Girtman replied there shouldn't be renters.
She asked what rights the homeowners have and Mrs. Czufin stated
that it is wonderful that the people came tonight. Mrs.
Girtman stated this is America and they will speak. She is
against a developer coming in and devaluing her property. She
built her house in 1966 and has done a lot of work. The other
neighbors have also been there for many years.
Mrs. Czufin clarified that she does recognize the need for more
housing and Mrs. Girtman replied affirmatively, but stated that
five or six houses won't relieve that much. She has been work-
ing for decent housing for a long time. She is not speaking
against the overall project.

MARCH 10, 1980
Chairman Thompson asked if any communications had been received
and Mr. Gordon read a letter from Mrs. Florence Mills McCray
stating her opposition to the granting of these variances. She
resides on lots 179 and 180 and this plan calls for two dwellings
to be erected on the same sized property as hers next door. She
requests the variance to be denied for Lots 181, 182, 183 and
184. She does not intend to impede progress, but the value of
the homes in the neighborhood must be considered.
Mr. Hester asked if he understood that the owner could build on
lots platted at 50 ft. and Mr. Howell replied that 1,250 sq.
ft. houses are built on 50 ft. lots allover the City. An
owner who has owned a 50 ft. lot can build on it. Mr. Hester
asked if Flagship Bank owned these before Mr. Smith obtained
them and Mr. Moore informed him that Flagship Bank foreclosed
on Mr. Smith. He clarified the request was only for a reduc-
tion in frontage and some instances the square footage isn't
met. The houses will be 1,300 sq. ft. and will comply with all
setbacks. There will be no jamming in.
Mrs. Artis stated according to the zoning regulations, the mini-
mum frontage is 60 ft., but now it is being stated a house can
be built on a 50 ft. lot and Mr. Moore replied that the confu-
sion arises with the combination of lots. He pointed out one
application requests relief from 60 ft. to 56.29 ft., one from
60 ft. to 53.84 ft., and one from 60 ft. to 52.03 ft.
Mr. Deale stated that he had a chance to buy this property about
eight to nine years ago, but when he inquired about this property
he was told the small corner lots couldn't be built on.
Mr. Slavin clarified that the platting originally was 50 ft.
lots which was accepted by the City. In subsequent years,
the requirement was raised to 60 ft. People have bought two
lots and built one home on them. This is a question of four
lots which are platted 50 ft. lots and the present buyers are
buying something and running into a problem which is not their
doing. There are hardships to the people living there, the
builder, and the overall master plan. Demolition is now taking
place and housing must be provided for those people.
Chairman Thompson referred to the letter from the attorney and
clarified that a self-created hardship is not one created by
the City. The City code does not deny this person the use of
the property, but says instead of four units, they must build
three. There is no landlocked position. The hardship is we are
denying some future person a decent place to live.
Mr. Zimmerman stated up until now on lots similar to these
where there have been several grouped together where the lots
can be combined, we have not been granting variances in other
-16-
(~
(-
MINUTES - BOARD OF ADJUST~ENT
MARCH 10, 1980
parts of the City. Th.;;; co~,forms to that general pattern.
The only lots we have bee~ giving variances on are those which
are landlocked wher'_ th<:re can't be any combining. He doesn't
see any reason to cha~ge this policy.
Mr. Gordon asked how much red tape would be involved to change
this plan to 91 instead of 93 and Mr. Osslander replied that
they estimated they would have to change to 90 units and would
lose three units. He would not be interested in the project
then. They were invited into Boynton Beach to develop this
property. He is looking to some extent to the City to help
them. It is a difficult project under difficult circumstances.
This was not their idea, but was developed by other people and
handed to them to put together. It is not the kind of project
that you go back to the drawing board on.
Mr. Slavin referred to the City Planner having knowledge of
this project and Mr. Moore clarified that the City Planner has
been working with this developer and indicated the last thing
to make this go is within the province of this Board. They
have worked on this project for years. He has sat and listened
for years to people tell about the plight of the people in this
area and now they say they don't want renters in their back yards
and that is hard to take.
Mrs. Czufin stated she thinks this is a situation which is of
great importance to the City and should not be treated lightly.
It should be given great consideration by the people. She does
not feel qualified to make a decision on this. She would like
to give her seat to Mrs. Artis, who might have more information
on this and Mr. Wolf informed her that under Florida law, a
member of a board must vote on every issue unless they have a
conflict of interest. He doesn't think it would be the proper
procedure for her to relinquish her seat. Chairman Thompson
added that once the process has been started, a member must
vote. Mrs. Czufin commented that however she votes, she hopes
she votes the right way. She thinks there has been a lot of
work and time put into this and she is thinking of what is best
for Boynton Beach.
Mr. Zimmerman referred' to there being other problems here and
stated we are not assured this project will go through because
of the high interest rates, etc., even though a variance is
granted. Chairman Thompson added that the City Planner has not
officially studied this and the Building Official was not aware
of it. On projects of this calliber, it is hard to give the go
ahead when City people are not aware of it.

MINUTES - BOARD OF ADJUSTMENT
MARCH 10, 1980
Mr. Wolf stated he would like to try to limit some of the issues
for the Board. In granting a variance, he thinks they should not
be looking at what is a benefit necessarily and the main concern
is not the whole City. As far as assuring this project, they
could condition a variance to one particular builder; make it a
condition this is the person the variance is being given to. He
has some strong concerns which should be considered. In grant-
ing a variance, an economic disadvantage of a party is not a
reason to grant a variance. There might be more here, but the
Board must make the decision. If it is just an economic disad-
vantage, they must look upon if they do it for one, they must do
it for everybody. The law of Florida is that an economic disad-
vantage is not a sufficient reason and is not a hardship. They
also must consider whether it is a self-created hardship. He
heard words that they did not look at the law at one point, but
ignorance of the law is not an excuse but maybe there is more
involved. Maybe these people were led on by City departments.
The Board must make an ultimate decision. They must look at the
issues and generally not the project as a whole. It will almost
be setting a precedent in a way and they will be hard pressed
when someone else comes in. They must decide whether there is
a real hardship and the Board must make this decision.
Mr. A. Gainer, 807 N. W. 3rd Street, stated he is concerned
about rental houses being built here. He travels the county
and has seen the rundown rental housing projects. Right now,
the people in this areamve quite a bit of money tied up in
their homes and they don't want to look outside and see houses
like in other projects in the county. He has seen projects
owned by the government and housing authorities. He owns five
orax lots in this area. He would not sell them to anyone who
would just build anything. He would appreciate if the project
is kept on Seacrest Blvd.
Mrs. Girtman requested clarification from the attorney and
asked what the limitations are on this with each citizen
who received a notificationmming down to protest? How far
can the people go? If it is not good for her to voice her
objections, why did the City take the time to send all the
people in the area a letter and Mr. Hester replied this is
done as required by law. Chairman Thompson informed her that
no decision has been made and the Board listens to both sides.
Mr. Hester added that just because she voices her opinion, it
doesn't mean the Board has to agree with her opinion. The
Board must look out for the interests of the City. Because he
voiced his opinion, it doesn't mean the Board has to accept it.
He is glad we have this right to speak. This Board makes their
own decision.

MARCH 10, 1980
Mr. Osslander stated that they could build 90 units and meet
every requirement and all the opposition which has been voiced
would go to no avail, but they don't want to do that. It is
within the Board's authority to grant this relief to do this
project the right way as opposed to the wrong way. He doesn't
want to do the project the wrong way and will not build 90 units.
This whole area has been the attention of Community Development
for years. This specific area that they have been asked to
develop has been dedicated for new construction with government
assistance. The whole area is undergoing a tremendous redevelop-
ment on the part of the City, County and State. There has been
an opportunity for resident participation over the years. This
may not be the forum to hash it out. These people have legiti-
mate concerns and if he was in their spot, he would be saying
the same thing. It is unfortunate these issues are being aired
here. There should have been input from the residents over the
past few years. These are the people who are supposed to be
benefiting. He is reacting to an invitation to come in and
provide housing. Ordinarily if he was going to make a lot of
money, he would do 90 units and there would not be that much
difference, but this is not worth it. They were willing to see
it through, but not to redo it again.
Mr. Zimmerman referred to the builder's statement that he could
build 90 units on the land now without difficulty,but it is the
paperwork involved and asked if there was any possibility of
securing additional land for three more units and Mr. Osslander
replied they would have to start allover again. Mr. Zimmerman
referred to having 93 units then and Mr. Osslander replied the
sites would be different and would require re-inspection. HUD
would have to come from Jacksonville and make inspections, etc.
He felt this project would help the City. There are some parti-
cular hardships from the City's point of view with the reloca-
tion of people being in jeopardy. Whether this is an official
hardship, he cannot say, but it is a problem and if the City
wants housing, this is what needs to be done.
Mrs. Czufin referred to tabling this to have the possibility
of talking to Mr. Annunziato and Chairman Thompson replied
that we have received the information and a decision can be
made now.
Mr. Slavin asked if the adjoining property was occupied next
to the lots on N. W. 2nd Street and Chairman Thompson informed
him the property to the north is vacant and the letter received
was from the adjoining property owner.
Chairman Thompson asked if any clarification was needed and Mr.
Zimmerman asked just what the hardship is? Chairman Thompson
informed him there is no hardship in this particular case
based on the rules we operate under. Mrs. Artis questioned
if this was a self-imposed hardship caused by the builder and
-19-

r
MINUTES - BOARD OF ADJUSTMENT
MARCH 10, 1980
Mr. Moore stated there is a hardship as the zoning laws were
changed while they were working on this project for three years
and to change it now requires going through red tape with FHA
and HUD. To cite one precedent, the 45 ft. heig~limit was
strictly adhered to in the City, but when Motorola came, 65 ft.
was allowed.
Mrs. Czufin clarified that everything was approved and HUD has
agreed and there is financial backing, but if it is changed,
they will not proceed with this project.
Mrs. Czufin moved that this request for variance to allow a
minimum lot size in R-IA of 5,000 sq. ft. from 7,500 sq. ft.
be approved. Mr. Slavin seconded the motion. As requested,
Mrs. Kruse took a vote on the motion as follows:
Mrs. Czufin
Mr. Blum
Mr. Zimmerman
Mr. Ridolfi
Mr. Slavin
Mr. Gordon
Mr. Thompson
- Pass
- Yes
- No
- No

Motion failed with four votes against. Chairman Thompson an-
nounced this request for variance has been denied by the Board.
COMMUNICATIONS
Chairman Thompson referred to receiving an important memo from
Mr. Cheney and advised the City Council has approved l7~ per
mile allowance for gas, but there is a procedure to be followed
to obtain it. Mr. Gordon read the memo. Chairman Thompson
questioned where the starting point is for the mileage and Mr.
Howell informed him that the Chairman must make this decision.
DISCUSSION WITH ATTORNEY
Mr. Wolf advised that he was asked to come tonight to talk to
the Board about variances and special exceptions. The things
this Board is supposed to be concerned with are very limited.
They are not sitting as a zoning board to consider what develop-
ment is best for the City. They are concerned somewhat what the
applicant is going to do. The major question is whether there
is a hardship and is it a self-created hardship. That is what
a variance is all about. The Board must make that determination.
A variance and special exception are two very different things.
A variance is release from the strict interpretation of the
zoning code. A special exception is something allowed by the
zoning code if the Board makes special conditions. A variance
definitely requires a hardship which cannot be self-created.
