overview of APP23-0002 and explained the criteria to use when making their decision.
Commissioner Bole asked how a buyer would know that property is not within Code.
PCDD explained that typically the seller should disclosure that they have done work
without a permit, but that it's highly unlikely that they are doing that. It will not show
up in a lien letter search. Some realtors call and ask and unless you know to ask, you
don't ask.

PCDD Askew answered questions from Commissioner Kelly about drainage,
confirming it drains into a basin near the Aquatic area which is a problem area for
drainage.
Attachment A
E. Applicant's Documentation and Presentation/Testimony
Applicant Mitchel Skaff provided details of their request and noted that one of the
main reasons they bought the house was because of the pergola and neither the seller
nor the listing agent disclosed any issues with permitting. He spoke about the structure
having been there for two years and not causing anyone any issues, why he should not
be punished, the financial implications if he is required to tear it down, and the need to
consider variances separately, case-by-case. (Connor Millsaps, wife and co-applicant,
was also at the podium and made brief remarks during Mr. Skaff's testimony.)
Sandra Skaff, applicant's mother, referred to the photos in Attachment A as she urged
the Commission to approve the request.
Commissioner Ring questioned the cost to remove the pergola and various details
about its construction. Mr. Skaff referred to the photos and provided details.
Commissioner Waters questioned how long they've lived there, whether they put the
pavers in, and whether anything has been added since they bought the place. Mr.
Skaff confirmed that they moved in in January 2022, everything was already there, and
they've not touched it since. Commissioner Waters asked if he was told about
impermeability, setbacks, or anything. Mr. Skaff confirmed he was not told anything.
Mayor Ford questioned whether he was furnished an Owner's Title Insurance Policy
during closing. Since Mr. Skaff wasn't sure, Mayor Ford suggested that he check into it
to see if he has options to remedy with other parties.
Mr. Skaff answered questions from Commissioner Waters about the timing of the Stop
Work Order and subsequent events.
F. Public Comments
Robert Sax, next door neighbor to the applicant and HOA President, confirmed that
the structure and pavers were there when the applicant bought the property and
provided a history of storm events to explain why he believes it has no significant
environmental impact from water shed.
David Thomas, contractor and father of Latasha Smith, spoke about his experience of
being denied a permit back in 2015. He noted that the subject pergola is not tied into
the house; it is tied into the sheeting and explained why he believes it is not built to
Code. He commented that he would like to see them be able to keep the structure, but
also wants to be able to build what he was turned down for in 2015, for his daughter.
PCDD Askew answered questions from the Commission and clarified that if they are

Agenda Item #1.A.
11 Mar 2024
Page 6 of 159
Special Called Meeting of the City Commission
October 30, 2023
approved tonight, they would still have to go through the building permit process and
have it inspected by the City's inspector to meet all the building Codes. She also
provided additional details about the approval criteria listed on slide 14 of Attachment
A and referred to slides 6 - 8, as she explained the issues that are part of this
application, which include lot coverage, rear yard setback, side yard setbacks, and
onsite stormwater.
Mayor Ford asked CA Gabriel to opine on the impact of precedent and how it would
relate to future actions, especially in light of Mr. Thomas. CA Gabriel explained how
each property has its own circumstances and variables and legally speaking, there is no
precedent-setting regardless of what is decided. Each property is adjudicated on its
own merits, on its own behalf.
When asked by Commissioner Kelly about any recourse for Mr. Thomas, PCDD
Askew explained that a variance would be required for anyone to build in the setback.
G. Closing Comments/Rebuttal
Mr. Skaff provided closing remarks.
H. Commission Deliberation and Action
Commissioner Bole commented that Code Secs. 24-108 and 24-68 are clear to him.
Commissioner Kelly noted that they are not just asking for one variance.
Commissioner Ring expressed empathy for the applicants and explained that the
Commission has to follow the Code as it's written. She suggested that an option could
be for the applicant to seek legal counsel on the previous owners.
Commissioner Waters commented on the criteria necessary to approve the variance and
on not finding a way to approve it.
Mayor Ford asked PCDD Askew if the Commission were to deny, would they have
latitude to give the applicants enough time to pursue legal action against other parties,
if desired. PCDD Askew explained that they can be lenient and make accommodations
as long as the applicant is working with the City.
Commissioner Ring asked whether all the pavers would have to be removed, if the
variance was not approved. PCDD Askew confirmed that the covered porch and all of
the pavers would have to be removed and answered additional questions. She noted the
code enforcement process and confirmed that you cannot ask for the same variance
within 365 days.
There was a brief discussion about the pergola and the need to follow the Code.
MOTION: To deny the request for all three variances.

apologized to the applicants for not being able to grant the request.
