Vero Beach, Florida 32960
Dear Buck:
I am enclosing copies of correspondence to the Board of Adjustment
from Mr. Thompson regarding a variance on his lot in Sebastian High-
lands,
The Board of Adjustment met this morning and tabled the motion un-
til some questions could be answered. First, we were not certAin
that an aluminum carport awning was a buildinf,• We would ask that
^ clarification be issued by you, also, as to whether we could re-
strict our variance to the aluminum awning and any permanent
structure be prohibited from being built on the particular concrete
driveway by Mr. Thompson or future owners.
We also would like an opinion as to whether we have the power to
bind future Boards by our action as to the type of structure being
erected.
The second matter regards notice of meetings of the Board of Adjust-
ment. Previously we have been mailing a notice to the members and
posting 5 notices in public places in the City. However, there is
some question in my mind as to whether or not we should advertise
in the newspaper regarding meetings of the Board of Adjustment.
I would also appreciate your giving me a call so that we may discuss
other matters which are pending concerning the Airport Leases and
the Board of Adjustment. _
Sincerely yours,
Larry T. Hall, Chairman
Board of Adjustment

Dear Larry:
As per our recent conversation, when we sold the homes
for Lots 33 & 36, Block 411, Unit 9, Sebastian Highlands
we did not think that it would be necessary to request
a variance as the front footage on both lots is over
81 feet. However, when we received the enclosed
Engineering Site Plans back, we noticed that we over-
looked the fact that each lot narrows in the back. Both
of these homes have four bedrooms and should fit in very
well across from the park.
Therefore, we are requesting a variance on these two
lots so that we might obtain our building permits and
start construction immediately.
We would appreciate your earliest consideration and
reply.
VVerryL truly yours,
/

Dear Bill:
The Board of Adjustments at their June 19th meeting approved the
side lot setback requirement variance for Lots 33 and 36, Block
411, Unit 9, Sebastian Highlands to construct said residence on
lots as per your survey and plot plan.
.As you will recall from peal' letters, the Board in granLing this
variance is not committing itself to any future variances and
again asks that General Development continue to take sLeos to
construct houses that will conform with the existing setback
requirements without asking for variance. on future lots.
Your cooperation in this matter will be greatly appreciated.
Sincerely yours,

BOARD OF ADJUSTMENT
JUNE 19, 1973
8:30 A.M. - THE SEBASTIAN RIVER BANK
SEBASTIAN, FLORIDA
The meeting was called to order by Chairman Larry T. Hall at 8:30 A. M.
Present were: Members Betz, Pottinger, Hall.
Absent were Members Mays and Broyles.
The first item of business to come before the committee was a letter
received from John Mays asking that his resignation be accepted as
he was no longer a resident of the City of Sebastian. Upon motion
duly made and seconded, the Board accepted Mr. Mays resignation with
deep regrets. The chairman was instructed to forward his resignation
to the City Council, asking that they accept his resignation with regrets
and that a letter of appreciation be forwarded to Mr. Mays for his
service on the Board.
The Board also considered a request from General Development Corporation
for a side lot variance on Lots 33 and 36, Block 411, Unit 9, Sebastian
Highlands to construct residences on the lots leaving less than the ten
foot set back side lot requirements. Upon motion duly made and seconded,
the Board approved the request by General Development Corporation since
these lots should have been included in the last request, and they have
made an effort to replat certain sections to accomodate the large houses.
The Board upon motion duly made and seconded reconsidered the requests
from Mr. John W. Thompson to construct an awning over his concrete drive-
way to within inches of the lot line. Upon motion duly made and seconded
the Board approved this variance with the stipulation that the variance
is granted for an aluminum awning and the variance in no way grants per-
mission to construct a permanent type enclosure over the concrete drive-
way now or at any future date. The variance will be effective upon the
receipt, by the Board of Adjustments, of a letter from the purchaser of
the Gulley property, located immediately to the north, stating that he
has no objections to this awning being constructed.
There being no further business to come before the Board, the meeting
was adjourned.
