NEW BUSINESS:
A. PUBLIC (QUASI-JUDICIAL) HEARING
GHO SEBASTIAN, INC., IN REGARDS TO LOT 50, SEBASTIAN
LAKES P.U.D. SUBDIVISION PHASE 1, IS REQUESTING A
VARIANCE TO ALLOW A REAR SETBACK OF TWENTY-FIVE (25)
FEET FOR THE DWELLING, WHEREAS THE APPROVED

Mr. William Handler, 5670 Corporate Way, West Palm Beach, FL, was present
representing GHO Sebastian, Inc.
Mr. Handler, Ms. King and Mr. Hass were swom in by the Chmn. at 7:05 P.M.
There were eleven (11) notices of hearing sent and there were no objection or non-
objection letters received.
Mr. Stringer, City Attorney, summarized the quasi-judicial format of this hearing.
Mr. Handler gave his presentation on the Tradewinds of Sebastian Lakes. He explained
that the site for which this variance is being applied for is the site of a model home for
this subdivision. He also noted that he will be trying to get the entire PUD changed in a
similar manner. He also explained that since the roads are curved - for traffic flow and
aesthetic purposes - and there are many lakes, the layout of this lot needs this variance
to be able to place the model home there. He then covered the Board Criteria for
determining variances from the staff report, and from his viewpoint.
Mr. Hass gave staff presentation and recommended approval.
In response to a question from Ms. Kautenburg(a), Mr. Handler responded that this
model home on Lot 50 is the largest of the models, and other models will be smaller.
Acting Chmn. Schmitz opened and closed the public hearing at 7:19 P.M., as there were
no opponents or proponents.
There was no rebuttal by the applicant or staff.
MOTION by Gore/Beckwith
I move that the Board approve the variance request by GHO, Sebastian, Inc., to
allow a rear setback of twenty-five (25) feet for Lot 50, Sebastian Lakes, Planned
Unit Development, Subdivision phase I.
