Phil –
David Dickey and city attorney Kim Kopp called me this week to update
me on the status of the permits. They confirmed that the City will not
be able to issue the permits by Monday, Feb 16th, which of course is the
association’s deadline for terminating the binding development plan.
The City would only be able to provide us with written assurances, of a
sort, that the permits would be issued upon B&B Enterprises addressing
these issues:
1. Confirming an alternate means of access;
2. Trimming and pruning some trees (which may or may not open up
alternate access); and
3. Installing a fire hydrant, which would require permitting
through the City of Cocoa. Dave Dickey estimates that the hydrant
process would take anywhere from 60 to 90 days.
Obviously, none of that’s going to be done by Feb 16th, and perhaps not
even by the proposed closing date between Cumberland and B&B
Enterprises, which I understood to be in late May. In either event, the
type of assurances the city can offer will not be sufficient for the
association to determine that the permits will in fact be issued. I
don’t doubt that Mr. Baugher would make every good faith effort to
satisfy the city’s concerns, but no individual in his position could
provide adequate assurances that the City of Cocoa would sign off on the
hydrant installation without reservation.
However, attorney Kopp proposed an interesting solution – at the Board
of Adjustment meeting on February 26th, city staff could explain the
timing problem to the Board and recommend that the special exception
application not be approved unless it was expressly conditioned upon B&B
first completing all of the work (and hydrant installation) required by
the fire marshal, with the result that neither Cumberland Farms nor the
association could commence construction unless those preconditions were
satisfied. The bottom line being that until those conditions were
satisfied, nobody would be authorized to do anything.
I have gotten preliminary indications from two directors that the
association’s current board of directors would be okay with that,
provided Cumberland Farms and B&B were also willing to advise the Bd of
Adjustment of their consent to those conditions. Dave Dickey and
attorney Kopp expressed a high degree of confidence that the Board would
accept the staff’s recommendations and add those two conditions to the
special exception approval. I am not presuming that such consents would
be forthcoming from Cumberland or B&B, but the only other alternative
would appear to be for B&B to demolish both existing residences. Mr.
Cunningham, the Fire Marshall, has advised me that demolition would
entirely eliminate his concerns and the need for further conditions on
issuing the association’s permits. However, I also understand that
demolition is the least preferable option for Mr. Baugher for obvious
reasons.
In all events, I think the first thing to resolve is a brief extension
of the association’s deadline from Feb 16th to perhaps Friday, Feb 20th
so we can discuss this further.
Please give me a call when you get in or otherwise email me as to your
client’s and B&B’s agreement to the suggested extension until Feb 20th.
Otherwise, the association will have to send written notice on Monday of
its termination of the BDP.
Thanks,
Van
