These standards are set forth in the International Property Maintenance Code and the Florida Building Code and were adopted as part of the City of Atlantic Beach Code of Ordinances in Chapter 6, Article II, Section 6-16. A code enforcement inspection at 318 ROYAL PALMS DR was conducted on 3/6/2020. The City of Atlantic Beach Code Enforcement has found your property to be in violation of the City of Atlantic Beach Code of Ordinances: VIOLATION CODE: Sec. 24-157. Fences, walls and similar structures. (a) Permit required. Issuance of a permit is required for any new or replacement fence or wall and walls shall comply with the following provisions. Nonconforming fences shall not be replaced with nonconforming fences. The term fence and wall may be used interchangeably within this chapter, and shall mean as specifically defined within section 24-17. Fences must be constructed out of materials that are customarily used for fences. VIOLATION CODE: Chapter 24 Fences, walls and similar structures. Sec. 24-157 Fences, walls and similar structures. (b) Height and location. (1) Within required front yards, the maximum height of any fence shall be four(4) feet, except that open ornamental aluminum, iron or vinyl or wood fences, with vertical rails no more than two (2) inches in width and spacing of at least four(4) inches may be constructed to a maximum height of five (5) feet except in cases as described in the following subsection ii. Within required side or rear yards, the maximum height of any fence shall be six(6) feet. NATURE OF VIOLATION: A stop work order was posted on your property on 12/2/2019 for installation of an 8 foot fence without a permit. During your telephone response on 12/3/2019 you indicated that you were out of town and would submit an application and request a variance for the 8ft height when you returned in February. To date, we have not received any applications. This letter requests that the noted violation(s) be corrected by submitting a fence permit application and requesting variance from the Community Development Board within ten (10) days of the receipt of this notice. As an option, you may also obtain a valid fence permit and reduce the fence height to 6 feet once approved. Thank you for your cooperation in this matter. Failure to correct the violation by the required date may result in this case being referred to the Code Enforcement Special Magistrate resulting in fines up to two hundred fifty dollars ($250.00) per day. Upon completion of the action required, it is your responsibility to contact me and arrange for an inspection to verify compliance. Please contact Atlantic Beach Code Enforcement at(904) 247-5855 if you have any questions or need additional information.

CALL TO ORDER AND ROLL CALL The meeting was called to order at 6:00 p.m. by Chair Hansen. 2. APPROVAL OF MINUTES A. Approved minutes of the June 02,2020 Special Called meeting of the Community Development Board. 3. OLD BUSINESS There was no old business. 4. NEW BUSINESS A. ZVAR20-0006 PUBLIC HEARING (Carol Girardey) Request for a variance to increase the maximum fence height allowed in the side and rear yards from 6 feet to 8 feet and to increase the maximum fence height allowed in front yards from 4 feet to 8 feet at 318 Royal Palms Drive. STAFF REPORT: Director Askew presented the information as explained in the staff report. She also provided a PowerPoint presentation. APPLICANT COMMENT: Carol Girardey of 318 Royal Palms Drive presented a couple of letters in support of the variance from her neighbors. She said that she had issues with the neighbor behind her house and the neighbor to the south. This is why she installed the taller fence. Ms. Girardey said that the neighbor behind her has a lot junk and there are rats in the back yard. She explained that she filed this variance after receiving a Notice of Violation letter from the City of Atlantic Beach. Community Development Board(CDB) June 16,2020 Page 1 of 5 Mr. Major asked her if the higher fence helped and she said that it did. Ms. Girardey said that it helps with the noise from the neighbor and with the view of the trash from the neighbor behind her. Mr. Moyer asked if the neighbor with the trash lived in the house behind her house. Ms. Girardey said he does. He asked about the company who installed the fence without a permit. She said it was a company from Georgia. Ms. Lagner asked if the work was already completed at the time that the Stop Work order was posted. Ms. Girardey said that it was. Mr. Major asked Staff about the noise and Director Askew said that the City of Atlantic Beach has a noise ordinance which handles those complaints via the Police Department. They will respond to the complaint with several steps that escalate and fees that increase if the noise is not taken care of. PUBLIC COMMENT: Chair Hansen opened the floor to public comment. There were no public comments. BOARD DISCUSSION: Ms. Lanier said that it seems there are 2 issues: one is a law enforcement issue and one is a code enforcement issue. She said that she didn't believe this was a variance issue and if this was variance is approved for an 8 foot fence then that 8 foot fence is there forever. Ms. Simmons explained some of the history regarding the establishment of the 6 foot fence height. She did not see any grounds for approval of the variance. Chair Hansen agreed that the condition of neighbor's yard is distressing. But he also believes it is a Code Enforcement issue and not a variance issue. Ms. Simmons encouraged the applicant to follow-up with the Police Department in regards to the late night noise. MOTION: To DENY ZVAR20-0006 because it does not meet the criteria for approval. Motion: Linda Lanier Second: Sylvia Simmons Linda Lanier(Moved By) For Kirk Hansen For Sylvia Simmons(Seconded By) For Brian Major For James Moyer For Jennifer Lagner For Motion passed 6 to 0. B. ZVAR20-0009 PUBLIC HEARING (Carlton Barber) Request for a variance to increase the maximum fence height allowed in rear yards from 6 feet to 8 feet and 10 inches at 410 Skate Road. STAFF REPORT: Planner Broedell presented the information as explained in the staff report. He also provided a PowerPoint presentation. Community Development Board(CDB) June 16,2020 Page 2 of 5 Ms. Lagner asked if people walk along the creek behind the applicant's fence. Planner Broedell said that they do and it is a pretty open path. Mr. Major asked about the privacy structure option that can be 8 foot high and 12 foot long. Planner Broedell explained that it can be a fence,trellis, landscape arbor,etc. APPLICANT COMMENT: The applicant was not present. PUBLIC COMMENT: Chair Hansen opened the floor to public comment. There were no public comments. BOARD DISCUSSION: Ms. Simmons didn't see any reason for approval of this variance. Mr. Moyer agreed with Ms. Simmons. The rest of the Board concurred. MOTION: To DENY ZVAR20-0009 because it does not meet the criteria for approval. Motion: Sylvia Simmons Second: James Moyer Linda Lanier For Kirk Hansen For Sylvia Simmons(Moved By) For Brian Major For James Moyer(Seconded By)For Jennifer Lagner For Motion passed 6 to 0. C. ZVAR20-0008 PUBLIC HEARING (Curaleaf, Brian Plewinski) Request for a variance to allow a medical marijuana treatment center dispensing facility within five hundred (500)feet of a religious institution at 763 Atlantic Boulevard. STAFF REPORT: Director Askew presented the information as explained in the staff report. She also provided a PowerPoint presentation. Mr. Major asked what the Florida Statues said regarding distance and Director Askew said that the State requires them to be treated the same as pharmacies. Mr. Moyer asked if there were any other dispensaries in the area and Director Askew said the closest one was in Jacksonville Beach. APPLICANT COMMENT: Brian Plewinski of 4101 Ravenswood Road, Suite 201, Fort Lauderdale,Florida said that he was representing Curaleaf and the property owner. He explained that the placement of the church in an old movie theater has created an exception circumstance that prevents the property owner from the reasonable use of his property for a pharmacy or medical marijuana dispensary. Mr. Plewinski said that if Community Development Board(CDB) June 16,2020 Page 3 of 5 the distance wasn't based on the property line but instead based on door to door, then it would probably be more than the 500 feet. He said that there be no adverse impacts from this use because there will not be treatment or consumption on the premises. Mr. Plewinski pointed out the alcohol store and restaurants serving alcohol that are closer to the church than the dispensary would be. Ms. Lanier asked where the company was location and Mr. Plewinski said he was not sure. Ms. Simmons asked Mr. Plewinski who he was representing and he said he was representing Curaleaf and the property owner(412 Boardwalk). PUBLIC COMMENT: Chair Hansen opened the floor to public comment. Former Mayor Mitch Reeves spoke against the approval of this variance. He pointed out that the owner of the property being discussed and the church are same. Elias Hionides of 47 11th Street and the owner of the property spoke in favor or the approval of this variance. He said that the dispensary will have full-time security, it will be monitored 24 hours a day and are probably more secure than most banks. Mr. Hionides said these facilities are not a place where people hangout but where patients come to get their medicine. BOARD DISCUSSION: Ms. Simmons went over some of the history of how the marijuana dispensary code language was established. She felt like the facility location would be easily accessible for patients. Mr. Moyer said that he is not in favor of this variance. Ms. Lanier asked Staff if the measurement is always taken from the property line or the front door. Director Askew said that this code is written "to adjacent properties". She said that since they both share the same property line there is actually zero feet between them. Mr. Major felt like the code was designed to make dispensaries not be able to exist in the City. He spoke in favor of the approval of this variance. Ms. Lagner was not in favor of this variance. Chair Hansen said that approval of this variance cannot be based on the approval of a neighbor, in this case the church. He said he would have trouble approving this variance. MOTION: To DENY ZVAR20-0008 because it does not meet the criteria for approval. Motion: Linda Lanier Second: Jennifer Lagner Linda Lanier(Moved By) For Kirk Hansen For Sylvia Simmons For Brian Major Against James Moyer For Jennifer Lagner(Seconded By) For Motion passed 5 to 1. 5.

Mrs. Girardey complained about condition of the yard behind her. During my first visit out there, there was a 6 foot privacy fence in the back yard. Mrs. Girardey uses her above ground pool ladder to look over the fence. I explained that I cannot invade the privacy of her neighbor and look over the fence and suggested she move her pool ladder to the other side of the pool so that her back was to the neighbor when she climbed the ladder. The only item I could act on was an old wood shed that was leaning and appeared unstable. I spoke with the neighboring homeowner and they removed the shed. Sometime after that visit, Mrs. Girardey installed the new fence; raising the back yard to 8 feet and the front side yard to 6 feet. I received a complaint about the fence and issued a Stop Work Order. She was out of town for several months tending to a sick family member. I agreed to give her an extension and take care of the issue when she returned to town. Mrs. Girardey submitted a variance request to the CDB and it was denied. Her deadline to appeal the CDB denial to commission was July 16th. Please see attached correspondence with Mrs. Girardey. She has complaints about the neighbors to the rear due to the yard condition and the neighbor to the side for personal belief reasons.

Our staff indeed has been quite responsive to Ms. Girardey. Ms. Girardey's attached comments were directed to the City Commission members, and it's my posture that the mayor/commissioners can decide individually(1) whether to respond to her directly; or(2) discuss the contents of the letter with the city manager. I'm inclined, with Shane's blessing,to forward this entire email chain to the City Commission members. I'm equally inclined to remind the Commission members of additional comments made by Ms. Girardey that bring some perspective to this matter. Finally, while I have the floor... I think it's worth noting that despite our code enforcement officer having what is by definition a thankless job, I'm not aware of anyone in our community who has a beef with our code enforcement officer than Ms. Girardey.That's a remarkable feat.

I don't have anything to add. Mrs.Girardey increased her back yard fence from 6 to 8 feet so that she wouldn't have to look at her neighbors rear yard. She could climb up and look over the 6ft fence and didn't like what she saw so she raised it to 8 feet and is upset that Code enforcement is not able pursue any case against her rear neighbor. I cannot legally look over the fence with her. It would be an invasion of privacy. She also just generally complains that her side neighbors hang out in the yard so she illegally increased the side front yard fence from 4 feet to 6 feet. She was issued a stop work order and submitted a permit application. Her permit application and variance requests have all been denied.

It would seem they pick and choose what is right and what is wrong and who should have to abide by the rules and who does not have to abide by the rules. I had a meeting on June 16, 2020 with the Code Enforcement Committee regarding a variance I filed on an 8 foot fence I installed in my back yard due the disgusting yard that is behind me I have enclosed pictures I told the Committee I installed the fence for privacy reasons and because no one would want to look at a disgusting yard like the one behind with gutters, etc sticking 9 feet in the air, rats coming into my yard and a house painted 5 different colors with a clothes line between the trees. While I realize that the 8 foot fence is not normal I do believe that I a justified in having it. I could never sell my house if someone saw what I have had to look at. I bought in this neighborhood because I was told it was up and coming, but that is not true The Code Enforcement has done nothing about the dumps that still exist in this area. The yard behind me has been this way since I bought the house in 2014 Code Enforcement tells me they cannot do anything about junk that cannot be seen above the fence. I know there is a property maintenance code as I have read it and they have been given pictures so that should be enough On top of that they denied my fence and told me I had to take it down to 6 feet. Now my neighbor has a 6 foot fence with two feet of lattice work on top so I asked if I could add that to put vines on it so I could block out the property behind me, yet I was told no. So explain to me how it is okay for him to have the lattice fence but not me and yes it can be seen from the road as it abuts my property in the front. No on ever showed to the meeting to fight my fence yet they denied it anyway I also brought letters from neighbors stating that they have no issue with the fence that my yard is gorgeous and I have increased their property values I gave them to the Committee they put them down and never read any of them. Four of my neighbors came over this week and told me they called about the meeting and asked if they could come and were told if they were arguing the fence being installed yes but if not no. My neighbors said they are all 1 3�1 for leaving the fence up so they told them they could not come to the meeting. I ask you where is the justice there. Neighbors were 325 Royal Palms Drive and 738 Vecuna Road. My neighbors who wrote the favorable letters were at 320 Royal Palms Drive, 735 Vecuna Road and 325 Royal Palms Drive. So I put in a request to replace my fence in the front yard before all this happened The fence has been up since 2014 and they denied the request stating I could not put up 6 feet in the front yard As you look at my house on the right side the fence has always been 6 feet since I bought the house On the left side a portion was 4 feet but in 2016 I raised that section to 6 feet because I felt threatened by my neighbors who are renters They mouth off referring to me as a whittie and they congregate in the yards (6- 8 of them at a time) The police have been called by several neighbors but it continues so no I dont feel safe. My point to all of this is that I have seen 8 foot fences throughout Atlantic Beach and the lattice work fence has been up next door to me since 2013 so why if he can do it why cant I and no one has made him remove it. As I stated earlier there is no uniformity at all for they do what they do or reject requests. It is so bad that my neighbors are moving because of this issue because new peopled coming in cannot do anything to improve these properties and it takes forever to get any approvals. I see my neighbor who has had a tarp on her house for two years on Vecuna Road and nothing has been done. 742 Vecuna is a total dump yard and nothing has been done, house on the corner or Royal Palms and Triton Road yard is a total dump and nothing has been done and then there is the house on Royal Palms Driver with the entire back yard filled with tents up and 8 cars in the yard. All of these issues are overlooked I have improved my property and spent a great deal of money on it and they continue to deny, deny. While I realize an 8 foot fence is not the norm (but I have seen many of them around here) my reason for doing it seems justified. I ask that perhaps I might get some assistance with this so I can just live a quiet life and continue on If not, I will probably sell my house as well because I cannot live in filth and look at it everyday. I told Code Enforcement I have no problem taking the back fence down to 6 feet if I can put up the lattice but I do have a problem taking down at 6 foot fence that was here when I moved in and noting has been said about it for 6 years and now they are noticing it I mean really 2 As far as taking the small section to 4 feet in the front yard I really would not feel safe as then they can look right into my yard and I live alone plus there are banana trees that really block the fence That fence has also been up since 2016 and they are just noticing it now. Again, I ask where is the justice in this when this part of town is filled with problems that they are not addressing. My neighbors have not complained at all the fence. If they have of read the letters I brought with me instead of discarding them as not important perhaps they would have seen this. I am asking for your assistance on some level to help me.

STATEMENT OF CODE ENFORCEMENT OFFICER: On Sept. 28, 2020 the undersigned Code Enforcement Officer conducted an inspection of the premises located at 318 ROYAL PALMS DR. During the inspection, the undersigned Code Enforcement Officer observed that the property was in violation of the section listed above in the City of Atlantic Beach Code of Ordinances. The nature of the violation included: Installation of an 8 ft. fence in the rear year and 6ft fence in the front yard without a valid permit. A stop work order was posted on your property on 12/2/2019 for installation of a fence without a permit. An after the fact fence permit was submitted on 2/6/2020 and denied due to the installed fence height exceeding the maximum height permitted by code. A variance application was submitted to the Community Development Board on 3/13/2020 and was denied at the 6/16/2020 meeting. On July 7, 2020 we received your email confirmation that you would cut the fence height so that it is in compliance with code but there is still no approved fence application on file for your property. On 9/10/2020, you were reminded by email that you still needed to complete the fence application process by submitting a revised application to the building department. As of 9/28/2020, no application has been received. If the violation is corrected and then recurs or if the violation was not corrected by the time specified for correction by the Code Enforcement Officer in the Notice of Violation that you received, the case may be presented to the Code Enforcement Special Magistrate even if the violation has been corrected prior to the hearing. You have the right to obtain an attorney at your own expense and to present witnesses on your behalf If you desire to have witnesses subpoenaed or if you have questions regarding the procedure, please contact the City Clerk's office within five days of the receipt of this notice at (904) 247-5821.

The City of Atlantic Beach adopted the International Property Maintenance Code and the Florida Building Code as part of the City of Atlantic Beach Code of Ordinances in Chapter 6, Article II, Section 6-16. International Property Maintenance Code/City Code of Ordinances 1. Sec. 24-157. Fences,walls and similar structures. (a) Permit required. Issuance of a permit is required for any new or replacement fence or wall and walls shall comply with the following provisions.Nonconforming fences shall not be replaced with nonconforming fences. The term fence and wall may be used interchangeably within this chapter, and shall mean as specifically defined within section 24-17.

(1) Within required front yards, the maximum height of any fence shall be four(4) feet, except that open ornamental aluminum, iron or vinyl or wood fences, with vertical rails no more than two (2) inches in width and spacing of at least four(4) inches may be constructed to a maximum height of five (5) feet except in cases as described in the following subsection ii. Within required side or rear yards, the maximum height of any fence shall be six (6) feet. STATEMENT OF CODE ENFORCEMENT OFFICER: On Sept. 28, 2020 the undersigned Code Enforcement Officer conducted an inspection of the premises located at 318 ROYAL PALMS DR. During the inspection, the undersigned Code Enforcement Officer observed that the property was in violation of the section listed above in the City of Atlantic Beach Code of Ordinances. The nature of the violation included: Installation of an 8 ft. fence in the rear year and 6ft fence in the front yard without a valid permit. A stop work order was posted on your property on 12/2/2019 for installation of a fence without a permit. An after the fact fence permit was submitted on 2/6/2020 and denied due to the installed fence height exceeding the maximum height permitted by code. A variance application was submitted to the Community Development Board on 3/13/2020 and was denied at the 6/16/2020 meeting. On July 7, 2020 we received your email confirmation that you would cut the fence height so that it is in compliance with code requirements. On 9/10/2020, you were reminded by email that you still needed to complete the fence application process by submitting a revised application to the building department. An approved permit was issued on 11/4/2020 but an inspection has not been requested to final the permit and verify the fence does not exceed the approved height. If the violation is corrected and then recurs or if the violation was not corrected by the time specified for correction by the Code Enforcement Officer in the Notice of Violation that you received, the case may be presented to the Code Enforcement Special Magistrate even if the violation has been corrected prior to the hearing. You have the right to obtain an attorney at your own expense and to present witnesses on your behalf.

Respondent owns the property located at 318 Royal Palms Drive, Atlantic Beach, Florida. 2. Notice of the hearing was sent by Certified Mail. 3. Respondent appeared at the hearing. 4. On February 6, 2020, Respondent submitted an application for a permit for a fence that she had already installed. 5. The permit was denied because part or all of the fence in the front yard was 6' instead of the maximum allowed height of 4'. 6. On March 13, 2020, Respondent sought a variance to allow the higher fence in her front yard. 7. On June 16, 2020, the Community Development Board denied Respondent's application for a variance. 8. Respondent appears to have lowered a non-conforming 6' front yard fence to a conforming 4' fence in the front yard by the time of this hearing. 9. Respondent's fence otherwise appears to be in conformance with the Code. 10. However, Respondent has never properly permitted all of her fencing or sought a final inspection, so compliance with height and other restrictions cannot be determined at this time. 4' 11. Respondent expressed a willingness to comply with permitting requirements and obtain a final inspection to determine compliance with the Code. 12. Respondent was admonished at the hearing to obtain permitting and a final inspection as soon as possible so that any deficiencies could be promptly cured. 13.Respondent was informed at the hearing that she must be fully compliant by the January 7, 2020 hearing or she would be fined for her non-compliance. CONCLUSIONS OF LAW 14. Respondent is in violation of permitting requirements. 15. The Respondent's indication that she would comply sufficiently justifies deferring further action on the matter until the next regularly scheduled code enforcement hearings on January 7, 2021 at 2:00 p.m. ORDER Based upon the foregoing Findings of Fact and Conclusions of Law and pursuant to the authority granted in Chapter 162, Florida Statutes, and the Code of Ordinances of the City of Atlantic Beach, Florida it is ORDERED: THAT action on the matter is deferred until the next regularly scheduled code enforcement hearing set for January 7, 2021 at 2:00 p.m. DONE AND ORDERED THIS 18TH DAY OF DECEMBER 2020.
