Record Book 1019, Page 0086, Vacating a Sewer Easement in the
Mermaid Key Project - Walter Bandish, Acting Public Works Director.
Walter Bandish, Acting Public Works Director, explained that this agenda item
was a request for the City to vacate an existing sewer easement. This would
allow a new sewer easement agreement as part of the Mermaid Key project. He
advised that the City recommended that the sewer easement be moved westerly
approximately 100 ft. to prevent the proposed buildings from being constructed
over the existing force main. Chairperson McNeely asked the City Attorney to
review the legal description to ensure accuracy.
Motion by Harry Pearson, seconded by John Johanson, to recommend that the
City vacate a sewer easement in the Mermaid Key project, as requested by City

5. Recommendation to City Council Re: Code Amendment - Section 110-
491, Provide Number of Parking Spaces - Todd Morley, Building Official.
Todd Morley, Building Official, advised that the City was considering a code
amendment for resort condominiums and resort dwellings to provide a sufficient
number of parking spaces. Discussion was held regarding: green space,
occupant load, pervious vs. impervious, square footage of unit(s), and
establishing a maximum number of parked vehicles. Following a brief
discussion, the Board members recognized that resort condominiums already
have established parking spaces, as provided in their adopted rules and
regulations; and usually have a greater number of parking spaces. Therefore,
the Board agreed that this proposed code amendment should only be considered
for resort dwellings. Following further discussion, the Board requested that City
staff perform research by reviewing the resort dwelling applications and report
back to the Board on the number of resort condominiums; number of two family,
three family, and four family townhouse units; number of single family
residences; specifying the number of existing parking spaces for each unit;
square footage of each unit; and the number of required spaces using the
proposed measurement methodology. The Board will then evaluate the statistics
and have discussion to further consider the proposed code amendment.
Motion by Donald Dunn, seconded by Harry Pearson, to postpone
recommendation on this agenda item until the next meeting. Vote on the motion
carried unanimously.
There being no further business the meeting was adjourned at 9:20 p.m.
