Dear Mr. Hawkes, ~ ~ - .~''-, We are in receipt of your letter dated August 1, 1882,' regarding the above referenced lot. Research into the hfetory of the subject lot reveals several points which effect your claim and which present courses of action other than a Posat6ly protracted and costly lawsuit ati£empting to prove a 'Taking'. '' Regarding the Zoning and permitted uses of - ' lot, you should be aware that the applicablarzonnp taop8~j~ This elaseifieation requires a minimum lot size of b0 z 1QQ, with setback requirements of 20 feet in front and roar, and a minimum of 5 feet, total of 15 fpet for Lhe two citlae. The City of Atlantic Beath has provisions in its Zoning Coda that allow property owners to aDp1Y for dimensional `Vartancas' if a hardship exists which preciutleP Lhem from complying with coda requirements. e -'. :' ~',. The lots on the west side of BegCh Avenue between 17th StrNt'^ and 10th Street were originally platted for Lhe expressed .-. Durpose of providing additional perking for the lots on. the :~ east side of 0each Avenue. This unusual procedure was Cone many years prior to annexation of the area by Atlantic Beaeh. Since that original platting, there have been seven atructjures built on these lots. Of the seven, four combined yhese Iota with larger lots to Lhe west, Lwo applied for antl reutvsd variances of one kind or another, end one pre-dates the annexation and no records are available on it. - Given Lhe above• conditions and history, we recommend that you make application to the Community Development Board .requesting a Variance to the minimum lgt,size and •setback requirements for the purpose of constructing a private garage on the iot. Applications are, available from Lhe Building and Zoning Department at City Hall. I~ I .® ~ - , . fOWNSEND C. Hnw T. E: ••^~J^~ BEACH REAL ESTATE INSURANCE 500 No,ih Thbd Slree! ~ F.O.

When I purchased the property early in 1970 I understood that this lot was zoned Yor a garage for the front house should we decide that we needed more garage space. which we do. The same principle that the oceanfront owners are going to sue in Federal Court against the State of Florida for partly "taking' their homes through defacto condemnation applies here and, of course, the supreme Court of South Carolina in a similar suit ruled that rhea the State or City rezones a property so it cannot be used Yor the purpose for which it was originally bought, this, indeed, is a "taking" and moat be paid exactly as a condemnation taking. I fix m loss at $$0,000 through the action of the City in changing the zoning and this is the settlement I would expect fmm the CIty for rendering my lot unbuildable. Of course, you realize that thxze new garage apartments have been constructed within the last two years adjoining, or almost adjoining, my property on similar sued lots.

A number of garage apartments have been built in our area and have been passed Dy the City of Atlantic Beach and these have been on So'x50' lots except that the ploy was used that they had aide yards although the buildings themselves had yards only 50• deep such as we have. In conclusion, we do request the City of Atlantic Beach to live up to its promise to the City of Jacksonville and to the older residents who purchased homes and lots while under the jurisdiction of the City o£ Jacksonville and permit us the free use of our land for the purpose for which we originally purchased it.' To deny us the right of private ownership is contrary to the Izws of the United ^tates and to change the zoning, so that we could not use the property for our original purpose calls for the City o£ Atlantic Beach to compensate us for our monetary loss according to a recent decision by the Supreme Court concerning ^outh Carolina oceanfront in an exactly similar case. Thank you for your attention to this matter and enclosed are copies of the plans for the home we wish to cons truct, and as to height, it is substantially less than the defac to hei ghte of neighboring garage apartments and duplexes both to the north and south of the lot in question in actual measurement irom~the pavement and some of these lots were built up 4• to 5' higher than the street level to maintain a greater height above sea level. Also our proposed structure will meet all the setback requirements and will not in any way hinder the access of emergency vehicles to Beach Ave. Incidentally, for your Snfoxmation, according to Mr. Bob Cook, past member of the Atlantic Beach City Commission, and former Mayor Billy Howell, the original name of Beach Avenue was ••Garage Approach Road^ and as stated above, most Atlantic Beach garages had living quarters above.

Kim Linebach City S?anager 800 Seminole Road Atlantic Beach, ?L 32233 Deer Mr. LinebachF Regarding the matter that we wish to bring before the Atlantic Beach City Commission on Nbnday, December 14, 1992. this pertains to our desire to build a garage apartment to serve as our retirement home on our 50'x$0• lot immediately west of our original home at l~yl Beach Ave. which we are forced to sell because of financial reverses. The rationale that we use in claiming that we have a legal aTd moral right to build on said lot is that when we originally purchased the lot in the latter part of 1969. this was a part of the City of Jacksonville and the City of Jacksonville did permit garage apartments to be built on these small lots lying westerly of the large oceanfront houses for the purpose of garages and servants' quarters and, of course, later these servanta• quarters became guest houses all up and down. not only this Seminole Heach area, but the entire Atlantic Beach area all the way down to the Sea Turtle. }ii etorically, these were built either on the westerly por- tion of the oceanfront lot or immediately across Beach Ave, and, of course, maT~y of them were built on $0'x$0' lots. It is my understanding that when the City of Atlantic Beach agreed to take this North Atlantic Beach oceanfrontage and make it part of Atlantic Beach, one of the a~eements to this transfer of property was that Atlantic Beach would honor the commi 4Dents made to the residents of North Atlantic Beach, such as ourselves, and one of the important commitments, to us, was that this 50•x50' lot could be used to erect a garage apartment with living quarters, but now the City of Atlantic Beach denies our right to build such a structure, Our neighbor, Judge Nottingham, has offered to either attend the Dec. 14 meeting or to give us his affidavit attesting to the £act that he did go to the City Hall of Jacksonville about the time o£ Hurricane Dora (1964) and was assured that he could build a garage apartment with living quarters on his 50'x50' lot which adjoins ours immediately south of our lot in question. Indeed, Mr. Nottingham informed me that he also would pxvbably be interested in building a garage apartment for himself and disposing of his oceanfront house due to the increased taxes on the big oce5panfront houses whichPia over $6,000 a year in our case and about actuallyybei npntaxe dnouPhofrourchomes,In brief, we older people are - Nvb.

NAR actively supported and lobbied for the Private Property Act of 1991, and haz participated az ~cu curiae or contributed money in a number of taus imoWing such issues, iaduding First English Lutheran Church v Lr+s Aneeles (twist), Presault v. ICC. Pennell v. San Jose. and, most recently, Loveladies Harbor. Ine. v. Unfired States and s'ulberrv Hill D~+elopment . v. United Stales. The latter two cases imrolve wetlands preservation undtr Sectioa 404 of the Clean Water Act, which at the present time is one-of the most prominent and activey debated areas of property use regulation. Unfortunately, I am not familiar with the New Jersey decision which you desrn'be in your letter. Although there is rto doubt that a government is liable to pay compensatory damages to a property owner fora "regulatory taking" of proper ty, the extent and nature of regulation which constitutes a "taking" is not w.:ll-defined. Under Federal constitutional law, a rezoning of property to a less intensive uu is not generally a taking unless the owner has alreadly clearly established reasonable "investment-backed expectations" of using the property in a particular fashion You will Jx: pleased to know, if you are not already aware, that the United States Supreme Court has recently accep[ed for review a case based on facts much Gke thou briefly aet forth in your letter. !n Lucas v.

In Paragraph 2, Nr. Holmen, who ie very active in this phase of the National Realtors Association's struggle to preserve private property ri ghte, mentioned that he, too, did not remember the New Jersey decision, and now it comes to me in a blinding flash why he didn't. The New Jersey Decision actually did not involve Private property RS ghte but inete ad was centered around the right of Realtors to put signs on property for sale based on the First Amendment regarding freedom of speech, and it was an embarrassing trick of my memory that made me think that this decision which said no community could prohibit Real Estate signs in the U. 5. had anything to do with private owners. In the Incas vs South Carolina Coastal Commission, this decision could be bad news for us except that we can easily prove that the Florida DNR regulation of the Atlantic Beach setback line would not do anything to prevent erosion or injury, the only injury Doing to the property owners who lose control of their property, just by a whim of the State Government.

Enclosed please find a copy of a letter sent to City Manager Y.im Linebach supporting our request for a permit to build on the vacant 50'x$0' lot in the rear of our home at 1771 Beach Ave. which we originally bought in a separate Bale for the express purpose of building a garage apartment. Perhaps you have for- gotten that I did some research on this for the Property Rights preservation Association and I discovered that on December 24, 1991, I sent you a letter Prom the National Association of Realtors regarding not only coastal property rights but constitutional rights of private ownership as in the case of the First English Lutheran Church v. Los Angeles. The Federal Court held that a regulatory taking of the property had taken place when the Church could not build. This deci aion said the "taking" had to be well defined but if the deprived owner could establish beyond reasonable doutba that he had "investment backed expectation" of using the property in a particular faehionl namely, in this case to build a garage apart- ment, that tie could prevail over the Government agency denying this investment backed expectation. Trust you will approve our building this garage apartment for our retirement home on moral and legal grounds. Very truly yours, .~E , TO'xiNSEND HAWKES KY. o_.

CITY OF ATLANTIC BEACH CITY COMMISSION MEETING STAFF REPORT AGENDA ITEM: Appeal of Variance Denial by Townsentl Hawker SUBMITTED BY: George Worley, City Planner DATE: December 8, 1992 BACKGROUND: Mr. Hawkes is the owner of an oceanfront home at 1771 Beach Avenue and a 50' X 50' lot directly across Beach Avenue. Mr. Hawkes desires to construct a freestanding garage apartment containing two living floors above a garage level. The proposed structure would encroach to within ten feet of the rear property line. A 50' X 50' lot is a substandard lot in Atlantic Beach antl requires a Variance for any construction thereon. In addition a Variance to the rear setback requirement is also needed and Lhe building height limitation is reduced in direct proportion to the reducetl size of the lot (permitting a maximum height of only 17.5 feet as the lot is only 50x of the minimum required). At the Community Development Board meeting the discussion was primarily regarding the original purpose of the lots on the west side of Beach Avenue in that block. It was pointed out that the lots had originally been platted to provide additional parking for the oceanfront homes and not intended for the construction of homes. The Board also expressed great concern for the potential adverse impact of additional traffic and restriction of parking in that vicinity. A motion was made and seconded to Deny the request and carried by a vote of 5 to 2. RECOMMENDATION: Staff is concerned about the potential for setting a precedent for allowing the construction of full sized structures on half sized lots. There are 10 lots of the same size as Mr. Hawkes lot remaining in that block, all of which can claim the same privilege as requested by Mr. Hawkes.

' I am handicapped and moving it from a storage facility everyday to work on it would be to hard on me bes!des heing very expensive. I keep myself busy by working on •_t keeping it Ln top shape and cleaning and waxing it. It keeps me active and has helped me to keep my muscles excerc!.sed. The generator must be run at lex,st :and 1/2 hours every month and also it must be allowed to air cut a minimum of every two days. It takes at least one full day to get it ready for a [rip and 24 hours to have the refrigerator cold. It is perked 10 feet from the top of the curb which !s the grass line. There is no room on either side of our house Co park it or I would park it there. Nnne of my neighbors have ever complained and have said that it is kept up neatly and does not interfere with them at ai:. Please consider allowing me to keep my motorhome parked in my yard in its current place. 'f hank you for your time. I look forward to hearing from you. Si n~.e rely 1. ~~ Clyde J.

CITY OF ATLANTIC BEACH CITY COMMISSION MEETING STAFF REPORT AGENDA ITEM: Appeal of Variance Denial by Clyde Asbury SUBMITTED BY: George Worley, City Planner DATE: December 7, 1992 BACKGROUND: Mr. Asbury was notified by Code Enforcement that his RV was parked on his property at 545 Seaspray Avenue in violation of the required front yard setback. Mr. Asbury requested a Variance to this setback requirement at the Community Development Board. During the Boards deliberations much Discussion occurred as to possible alternatives and the criteria for granting such a Variance as set out in Section 24-49 (1) b. t-6. Discussion concentrated on Mr. Asbury's ability to locate the RV at some remote location rather than his front yard. A motion to approve the Variance with stipulations was defeated by a vote of 3 yes and 4 no. No other motions were offered. RECOMMENDATION: The ability of the Community Development Board in granting Variances is limitetl by the above referencetl Section. The language therein REQUIRES that the Board make certain findings before granting a Variance. Among those findings are: that special conditions exists, that the special conditions were not created by the applicant, that granting the Variance will not give special privilege Lo the applicant not generally enjoyed by other owners in the district. Staff recommends affirmation of the Boards decision based upon the criteria of Section 24-49 (1) b. 1-6.

BUU Seminole F'oad Atlantic Peach, Floritla - Florida Gulliford -~2~3 In Fefcrencc to Community Development board f.eetinq November 17,. 1942 Mr. Gulliford, Please consider adding my name to your agenda at th ~~ December 14, 1992 mee*.ing of the City Council. I was on the agenda of the Community Developrt~ent board on Tuesday, November 17, trying to get a variance for a screened porch. I was turned tlown by a vote o4 four "no's" and three "yes's". Dne of the "no's" I question, as he asked me if I had been in the meeting earlier when they turned down an eltlerly latly for the same request. I nodded but =_tated that I thought each case was handled individually. He said they are, however, I question the merit of his question to me. Mr. Gullifor•tl, I want to mention that a porch (which I did not know needc-d a building permit since it had an existing slab) was built this summer because of the extreme mosquito problem in the par /. (the house backs up to Howell park). I believe that because of the excessive rain this season and the lack of sun in the park which caused a lot of standing water, contributed to the unusually high infestation of mosquitos. However, the problem does persist and is not determined by the elements. I consider this a definite health hazard when rumors in the past have contributed mosquitos as a carrier of the Aids virus. This may 6e just a rumor but I still have my an r.ieties. I had hoped for• rt~or•e sympathy board, but did not receive it. raccoon pr•o61em as one he also deal.

CITY OF ATLANTIC BEACH CITY COMMISSION MEETING STAFF REPORT AGENDA ITEM: Appeal of Variance Denial by Margaret Cresson SUBMITTED BY: George Worley, City Planner DATE: December 7. 1992 BACKGROUND Margaret Cresson applied for a Variance to construct a screened addition to the rear of her home at 1821 Tierra Verde Drive encroaching the rear yard setback requirement of 20 feet. Mrs. Cresson proposed to build to within 12 feet of the rear property line. The Board discussed special conditions which could warrant a Variance but after a motion and second to approve, the Board voted 2 yes and 5 no. RECOMMENDATION: The proposed use of this addition is for "reading" space and as such it is merely for the convenience of the owner and granting Lhis request would give special privilege to Lhe applicant which is not enjoyed by other owners in the district. Staff recommends against the granting of a Variance.

G"' - ~: N- Obviously, comparing a fixed to a variable rate loan is not an "apples to apples" comparison. In the current marketplace, the variable rate is certainly more attractive. I have three real concerns about the variable rate proposal. The first is from the standpoint of conservatism. Although my personal belief is that interest rates will rise but not soar during the next three years, certainly the upside risk is greater than the downside risk. Taking risks with public dollars, however well intended, must be carefully considered. The second concern I have is from a timing standpoint. As you are well aware, the strong possibility of Atlantic Beach borrowing in excess of $10,000,000 in calendar year 1993 makes it imperative that we close this deal in 1992. This allows the $499,500 lease/loan to be "bank qualified", or tax-exempt in the secondary market, significantly reducing our cost for the funds. Finally, NationsBank has indicated a desire for Atlantic Beach to pledge a specific revenue stream as collateral for a loan. I believe we can accomodate that request if need be. However, under the lease purchase agreement the assets themselves would be used as collateral, thereby avoiding the revenue pledge requirement. Therefore, it is my recommendation that we seek commission approval to enter into a lease purchase arrangement with the low fixed rate bidder, Liberty National Leasing company. o-w.-~._ .

Leinbach, City Manager y~II /// I From: Kirk R. Wendland, Finance Director it-[~/+-~n-~ RE: Equipment Financing RFP Attached you will find a brief summary of both the fixed rate and variable rate proposals we received at our November 22, 1992 bid opening. The best fixed rate proposal was made by Liberty National Leasing Company. Although Barnett Bank quoted a lower fixed rate, their effective rate was higher due to a $5,000 placement fee. Liberty National's proposal is based on annual payments in arrears, however they also submitted a bid based on quarterly payments in arrears. The quarterly payments carry a Blighty higher effective interest rate (5.44$). I'm sure they would be willing to establish a payment structure to suit our needs, if we awarded the bid to them. The best variable proposal was submitted by NationsBank. Assuming a bank qualified issue, our interest rate would be 71.48$ of the Prime rate. The bid does not specify, but generally this rate would float daily. With a variable rate of 71.48$ of Prime, the Prime rate would have to be at 7.4566$ to equate the low fixed bid of 5.33$. Currently, the Prime rate is at 6.00$, equating to a current loan rate of 4.2888$. Other factors should be taken into consideration. The NationsBank bid states that they will close within 30 days of the award. Hy guess is that they could accomodate our need to close prior to Jan. 1, 1993, however it may be close. Additionally, although NationsBank's bid did not include placement fees, there would be attorneys fees and closing costs involved. Due to the fact that Liberty National is a leasing company, and their bid is not for a "loan" per se, these costs would be somewhat reduced. Below is a list of the equipment which comprised the loan amount, and the amount budgeted for the year. We were conservative in our budget amounts, using a 7$ interest rate, meaning funds available will be adequate for whichever scenario we select. ~. ~A ~~~~ ~~~~ ~~ A[~IIA P1~1: Action to establish a policy regarding advertising in the city newsletter by charitable or non-profit organizatiors SGHSIT~ a1C: Maureen King, City Clerk R4'!E: Decafber 7, 1992 B11fR(~OOID: At the last regular City Conmission meeting the question was raised regarding advertising ~ charitable and non-profit orc3anizations in the city's quarterly newsletter.

Wendland, Finance Director 71-~ RE: Funding For Watermain Replacement During the Piscal year 1992/93 budget process, Bob Kosoy and I attempted to estimate expenditures for the year ending September 30, 1992, in order to project funds which would be available for the ensuing year. At that time, Sob felt the vatermain replacement for 1st, 9th and 11th ctreets vovld be completed prior to September 30, 1992. We shoved these funds as ^pzojected^ to be spent in our analysis of the 1991/92 fiscal year. Obviously, on the anticipation of spending these funds, ve did not budget for their expenditure in this current fiscal year. The City Commission awarded the bid for the work on September 14, 1992. However, none of the funds were spent in FY 1991/92. This timing difference will result in a higher Pund balance at the beginning of this fiscal year. However, the monies need to be reappropriated in order to pay for the project. Therefore, I have attached a request for a budget adjustment and will ask the City Clerk to prepare a corresponding resolution. ~ t3 RL~9(HlR'iQi tA. 92-39 A R~.QPLW 1RAlSPffimIIiG CHIN lQ~+S BBTiH+N PRi15 WNERE7S, the City Charter of the City of Atlantic Beach r[gui_tvs that the City Cumussion approve all budgetary increases and transfers fran one ford to another, and Wt~'A.S, the natuty of budgetary systacs and those day to day decisions affecting such budgera,y systerts rte,; rP adjustment fmn tyre to time, fXJW, Tf~'ORE, BE IT RESOLVED by the City Commission of the City of Atlantic Beach, that the attached Budget Adjw^tnent Mo.

Mr. Kosoy introduced members of his staff who gave the following presentations: Tim Townsend, Atlantic Beach Utility Plant Division Director, reviewed water and sewer capital improvements; Mr. Kosoy reviewed the Buccaneer Plant and collection and distribution lines, and Barry McNally, Buccaneer Utility Plant Division Director, reviewed the Buccaneer water and sewer Capital Improvement schedule. Following the presentations, Mr. Kosoy commended Messrs. Townsend and McNally for the excellent work they had performed. Mr. Kosoy explained the city faced regulatory agency mandates, fines, potential emergencies and higher costs if the problems of the city`s aging and maximized water-and sewer systems were not addressed row. The Mayor explained the Water and Sewer Committee had devoted many hours to studying the proposed work_ He reported increased revenues generated by the rate hikes would be used to finance about 510.5 million in improvements to the city's water and sewer plants. He explained regulatory mandates did not give the City a choice and that fines would be levied if improvements were not made. Following the presentation by City Staff, the Mayor opened the floor for a public hearing and invited Comments from the audience. Oceanwalk residents objected that their bills reflected artificially high rates because much of the water that flowed through their meter was used on their lawns. However, they felt they were billed for an equal number of gallons for wastewater. It was suggested that the city levy a flat quarterly fee equally divided among households rather than increase rates,' but the Mayor explained that method would not be allowed because regulatory agencies required that rates be tied to volume. The Mayor recommended that residents who water their yards frequently invest in a shallow well. Residents of Mayport Terrace and Atlantic Village mobile home park Complained that they were living on low incomes and, because of the proposed raise in water rates, rents were going to have to be raised.
