H.D. Adalll$ Enterprises, Inc. - Request for Variance for Section..42-
48 at Harbor Point Subdivision (Community Development
Transmittal 4/16/96, Application, Section 42-48 Code, Map,
Humans Letter 3/27/96, Spalter Letter 4/!1/96)
Mayor Cartwright opened the quasi-judicial hearing at 7:23 p.m. and the
City Clerk swore in all those who intended to offer testimony.
All members of Council disclosed ex-porte communication.
The City Manager briefly discussed the variance request due to the fact that
a residence is located approximately 800 feet from the site; explained that
the Code provides that there be no smoke with three statute miles of the
airport; and noted that in accordance with the Code there is actually no
provision to issue a bum "permif'.
The City Attorney said, although included in the agenda packet, Council
has not adopted the Florida Administrative Code, and reminded Council
that it should be guided by its Code of Ordinances. He said what should be
considered is a waiver from Section 42-48 (b) (1) if Council finds that there
is a hardship.
John King, Century 21, distributed a letter of no objection from the
property owner in question (see attached); said the applicant would abide
by all agency regulations and the community; that the hardship is the cost
of debris removal and that the estimated burning time would be seven to ten
days but they were requesting a three month window.
The City Clerk swore in Al Vilardi, 445 Georgia Boulevard, Sebastian. Mr.
Vilardi said he has never seen an air incinerator that does not create smoke.
The City Manager reiterated that the Council must consider whether it
wants to waive the spacing distance predicated on appropriate criteria.
Being no further input, Mayor Cartwright closed the heating at 7:40 p.m.

stipulation that there be no, that the City Manager's comments, that there be
no operations of any type that will produce smoke, glare or other visual
hazards within three statute miles of any unusable runway of a public
airport, time limit three months.
Vice Mayor Barnes said his motion was based on the hardship of the cost of
debris removal from the site.

being considered a hardship.

(City Manager Memo 4/16/96, Request for Payment, PW Director
Memo 3/6/96, Breakdown of Plants by Island)
The City Manager recommended the landscape architect be contacted
regarding reimbursement for possible errors in the design which may have
resulted in this change order. He said there is nothing currently in the Code
regarding change orders and that perhaps there should be.
Mayor Cartwfight noted she had found a difference in the design and
contract documents and suggested that for future projects a formula be
developed to determine labor costs in the event of a change order.
The Public Works Director suggested that in the future labor costs be
included in total project costs.
The City Attorney said ambiguities in public contracts are construed against
the party drafting the contract.
Mr. Halloran said when last minute changes were made, Council was
assured there were grant funds available. The City Manager said he would
check on this.

A. Mrs, Norma Damp
Mrs. Damp requested that if something is not relevant to an agenda item,
it not be included in the agenda packet.
B. Mr. RaymondH~!!oran
Mr. Halloran inquired how the Riverfront Committee membership
increased to nine members and the City Manager responded that over a
period of several meetings it had developed into this number. Mr. Halloran
said his objection is the manner in which the fmal members were added
without benefit of adding an agenda item and concern that the committee is
too large.
Mayor Cmwfight responded this was not an item that needed to be placed
on an agenda and said the matter was discussed quite thoroughly. Mrs.
Damp said she believed a motion should have been made to add the item to
the agenda.
The City Attorney said that the minutes, once approved, reflect the action
of Council and in this case the minutes have been approved.
C. Mr~ Richard Taracka
Mr. Taracka commended Steve DiTripano and Tim Walker for the U.S. 1
north city limit sign landscaping; and recommended cost saving incentives
