4. NEW BUSINESS
A. UBEX21-0002 PUBLIC HEARING (Amanda Britt)
Request for a use -by -exception to allow on premises consumption of beer and wine
within the Commercial General zoning district at 510 Mayport Road.
STAFF REPORT: Director Askew presented the information as explained in the staff
report. She also provided a PowerPoint presentation.
Mr. Haynie asked if commercial or residential property is located to the west of this
property. Director Askew said it was 2 -Family Residential. Chair Hansen asked about
the parking. Director Askew explained that there is parking in front of the roll -up doors.
She also said there is tandem parking also (which are not currently allowed for
commercial properties but were allowed at the time on construction). Ms. Simmons
asked if the applicant had 1 or 2 units. Director Askew said they would have 2 units.
There was further discussion regarding the parking and it was concluded that the
applicant would have 12 parking spaces.
APPLICANT COMMENT: Ms. Durden did a swearing in of people interested in
speaking on this case. Amanda Britt introduced herself as the applicant. She explained
that she decided to rent this warehouse for a photographic studio so that young
entrepreneurs could get together to take pictures of their products, discuss ideas, etc. Ms.
Britt said that she would like to have beer and wine available for the customers. She
confirmed that there are 12 parking spaces and some other possible parking spaces
around the site.
Ms. Lagner asked the applicant what the occupancy was. Ms. Britt said she hired an
architect to help figure that out. Mr. Haynie asked if the business was open and what the
hours will be. Ms. Britt said she isn't open yet but anticipated she would be open between
9:00 a.m. to 8:00 p.m. There was further discussion regarding the parking spaces.
PUBLIC COMMENT: Chair Hansen opened the floor to public comment. There were
no public comments.
Ms. Durden asked that any motion be limited to beer and wine and not alcohol as it is
not part of their license.
BOARD DISCUSSION: Ms. Lanier spoke in favor of this request. Mr. Haynie had
reservations of it turning into a bar. Ms. Simmons asked for their to be clarity in the
future regarding alcohol or beer and wine being listed as the request for exception. She
spoke in favor of this request. Mr. Moyer was also in favor of the request. Ms. Lagner
had a concern about the hours but was otherwise in favor of the request.

B. UBEX21-0003 PUBLIC HEARING (The Sea Salt Pavilion) WITHDRAWN BY
APPLICANT
Request for a use -by -exception to allow limited wholesale within the Commercial
General zoning district at 1845 Mayport Road.
C. ZVAR21-0004 PUBLIC HEARING (Jason and Dawn Engle)
Request for a variance to reduce the minimum rear yard setback to build a screened
enclosure at 512 Vikings Lane.
STAFF REPORT: Director Askew presented the information as explained in the staff
report. She also provided a PowerPoint presentation.
Ms. Simmons asked if it is a sub -standard size lot. Director Askew said it was a standard
lot. Ms. Simmons questioned how the enclosure was approved for permitting in the past.
Director Askew said they didn't seek a variance, it was approved at the staff level. Chair
Hansen and Ms. Simmons asked about the section of the code that talks about sub-
standard lots of record or non -conformities that are uses or structures. Director Askew
said a property owner is allowed to maintain them until their removal. She said that once
the structure is removed then it has to come into compliance. Ms. Lanier asked if the old
foundation was going to be removed and would that mean it is "abandoned" as stated in
the code. Director Askew said that if you are renovating more than 50% of the value of
the structure then the entire structure has to come into compliance. There was further
discussion about remodeling verses rebuilding of the screen enclosure.
APPLICANT COMMENT: Ms. Durden did a swearing in of people interested in
speaking on this case. Joe Rumancik introduced himself as the contractor. He is with
Community Development Board (CDB)
April 20, 2021

Agenda Item #2.A.

Sunshine Coast Construction. He explained the existing sunroom has flooding, roof
leaks and needs to be replaced. Mr. Rumancik said that it is the Engle's only living room
and to lose the 30" to make it meet setbacks would make the living room unable to
function. He gave an example of a previous variance in 2018 that had a similar situation
with an existing sunroom and that variance was granted.
Ms. Simmons asked for clarification on the current size and the proposed size of the
screened enclosure. Mr. Rumancik said the enclosure would lose 30 inches.
Mr. Engle explained that the foundation will need to be replaced due to the flooding. He
said that their plan is to replace the existing sunroom enclosure for a permanent structure.
Mr. Engle confirmed that this was their only living room. Ms. Lanier asked Mr.
Rumancik about the plan for the foundation. He said that the current plan was to remove
it in order to put in deeper footers and raise the slab to the same level as the rest of the
house.
PUBLIC COMMENT: Chair Hansen opened the floor to public comment. There were
no public comments. Chair Hansen read a couple of the letters that were mailed into the
City. There were 6 letters in favor of the variance.
BOARD DISCUSSION: Ms. Lanier said that since this enclosure was previously
permitted by the City, she would be in favor of this variance. Ms. Simmons felt like it
fit grounds for approval #4 (Onerous effect...). Mr. Haynie disagreed and wasn't able to
find a condition for approval. Ms. Simmons asked Ms. Durden if the Board could use
grounds #4 for approval. Ms. Durden said they could and she said they might be able to
use grounds #3 based upon the current enclosure being permitted by the City to begin
with. Chair Hansen liked this suggestion and agreed that there were exceptional
circumstances. Mr. Moyer spoke in favor of the variance. Ms. Lagner said that she
normally is very cautious when it comes to encroaching on the setbacks but due to the
previously permitting of the current enclosure, she would be able to approve this request.
MOTION: To APPROVE ZVAR21-0004 based on grounds of approval #3 being that the
City has previously approved this structure in the past.

D. ZVAR21-0003 PUBLIC HEARING (Maria J. Roman)
Request for a variance to allow two sheds on a residential lot at 418 Mako Drive.
STAFF REPORT: Planner Genest presented the information as explained in the staff
report. She also provided a PowerPoint presentation.
APPLICANT COMMENT: Ms. Durden did a swearing in of people interested in
speaking on this case. Manuel Roman Jr. introduced himself as the son of the applicant
and living at 418 Mako Drive. He said that he and his mother made this requested for a
second storage shed because they are in need of more storage.
PUBLIC COMMENT: Chair Hansen opened the floor to public comment. There were
no public comments.
BOARD DISCUSSION: Ms. Lanier said that this request mentions that other homes
in the area have 2 storage sheds but they shouldn't because it is illegal. She said that the
code say 1 storage shed and she doesn't see any criteria to apply to this situation. Mr.
Haynie agreed.
MOTION: To DENY ZVAR21-0003 since it does not meet any of the criteria for approval.

minimum rear and side yard setbacks for
accessory structures.
Section 24-151(b)(1)(1) requires storage

lines". The existing location is three (3)
feet from the rear property line and two (2)
feet from the side property line.
In addition, the shed is placed in the
required on-site storm water retention
area. Regardless of the outcome of this
variance request the volume of in -filled

Section 24-65 states that "applications for a variance shall be considered on a case-by-case basis, and shall
be approved only upon findings of fact that the application is consistent with the definition of a variance
and consistent with the provisions of this section." According to Section 24-17, Definitions, "[a] variance
shall mean relief granted from certain terms of this chapter. The relief granted shall be only to the extent
as expressly allowed by this chapter and may be either an allowable exemption from certain provision(s)
or a relaxation of the strict, literal interpretation of certain provision(s). Any relief granted shall be in
accordance with the provisions as set forth in Section 24-65 of this chapter, and such relief may be subject
to conditions as set forth by the City of Atlantic Beach."
Section 24-65(c) provides six distinct grounds for the approval of a variance:
(1) Exceptional topographic conditions of or near the property.
(2) Surrounding conditions or circumstances impacting the property disparately from nearby
properties.
(3) Exceptional circumstances preventing the reasonable use of the property as compared to other
properties in the area.
The applicant wrote "lot sizes are extremely small in this neighborhood. More than 10 houses have
sheds within the 5 foot of property line requirement. To move the shed will cost more than building
it."
(4) Onerous effect of regulations enacted after platting or after development of the property or after
construction of improvements upon the property.
(5) Irregular shape of the property warranting special consideration.
(6) Substandard size of a lot of record warranting a variance in order to provide for the reasonable
use of the property.
