PETITION V-78-26-C BY ROBERT KAVERMAN REQUESTING 12' BACKYARD SETBACK
VARIANCE TO CONSTRUCT A 30' X 15' UNENCLOSED POOL, LOT 13, BLOCK 6,
UNIT 2, LELY GOLF ESTATES - DENIED, STAFF DIRECTED TO REVIEW PERTINENT
ORDINANCE FOR RECOMMENDATIONS FOR NON-ENCLOSED POOLS
Legal notice having been published in the Naples Daily News on
September 27, 1978 as evidenced by Affidavit of Publication filed with
the Clerk, public hearin9 was opened to consider Petition V-78-26-C
by Robert Kaverman requesting a 12' backyard variance to construct a
30' x l5' unenclosed pool on Lot 13, Block 6, Unit 2, Le1y Golf Estates.
Zoning Director Carl Clemmer explained the project in detail,
referring to a map of the property, and stated t~at the staff is of
the opinion that the request for a 12' variance is excessive and,
considering the criteria established for granting variances, there is
no hardship involved since the pool could be located on a different
portion of the property.
Mr. Robert Kaverman, petitioner, stated that his property is
surrounded by Lely Golf Course area and coramented that Lely has offered
no objection to the variance. He noted that he could provide the
Board with a written statement to this effect if requested to do so.
Concernin9 the statement that the pool could be placed in another
location on the property, Mr. Kaverman explained that, due to the
design of the residence, this would not be feasible. A further
comment made by Mr. Kaverman was that other properties in the area
have received setback variances. Mr. Clemmer observed that the state-
,....--.- T
r .._- ,
. .
October 17, 1978
ment is correct - there were pools built several months ago 5' from the
rear line but that this provision was changed to stipulate 15' br the
Planning Commission.
There being no persons registered to speak on the matter,
Commissioner Archer moved, seconded by Commissioner Wenzel and carried
4/0 with Commissioner Brown absent, that the public hearing be closed.
Commissioner Wenzel, commenting that the Board would have to go
along with the staff recommendation since there is no hardship shown,
moved that Petition V-78-26-C requesting a 12' backyard setback
variance to construct a pool on Lot 13, Block 6 Unit 2, Lely Golf
Estates be denied. Commissioner Wimer seconded the motion which
carried 4/0 with Commissioner Brown not present.
During the brief discussion which followed, Commissioner Wimer
requested that the staff be directed to review the pertinent ordinance
as quickly as possible for recommendations for non-enclosed pools. Mr.
Clemmer stated that the review would have to go back to the Coastal Area
Planning Commission, through the Planning Department, and possibl~'
could be included in the six-month review presently being prepared
for hearing. Commissioner Wimer suggested that the petitioner be
kept informed of the progress and recommendation.
CHECK IN THE AMOUNT OF $142,933.79 REPRESENTING UNSPENT BUDGET FOR FY 77-
PRESENTED TO BCC BY SHERIFF AUBREY ROGERS
Sheriff Aubrey Rogers presented a check in the amount of $142,933.79
to the Board of County Commissioners which he said represents the dif-
ference between the expenditures an' the budget for FY 77-78. He
pointed out that the final reports with regard to fines, forfeitures
and civil fees collected by his department for the previous fiscal year
totaled $150,945 which has been turned in, noting that these amounts were
up some $30,000 over the 1976-77 fiscal year.

Chairman Pistor e~presBed the appreoiation of the Board for tho
Sheriff's operation of his department.enabling him to retuFn these
funds to the County.
FISCAL OFFICER ADVISES BCC OF RECEIPT OF EXCESS FESS RETURNED FROM THE
TAX COLLECTOR IN THE AMOUNT OF $317,931.71, AND FROM CLERK OF CIRCUIT
COURT IN THE ~10UNT OF $265,449.66, REPRESENTING FEES COLLECTED IN EXCES~
OF ANNUAL EXPENDITURES
Fiscal Officer Harold Hall advised the Board th^t exoess fees
in the amount of $317,931.71 have been turned in from the Tax Collector'e
office for FY 77-79. Also, said Mr. Hall, from the Clerk of Circuit
Court there has been some exceptionally good news in that the volume of
activity regarding recording, and the like, was up approximately 60% and,
by holding expenditures in line, a check in the amount of $265,499.66
has been received from the Clerk which, he said, represents about
$240,000.00 more than was anticipated.
Chairman Pistor expressed the appreoiation of the Board of County
Commissioners, and of the taxpayers and citizens of the County, for
the efficiency in operation which made it possible to return these
monies and which will enable the County to operate at the same level
and not increase taxes.
Citizen Mike Zewalk questioned why this information was not
present before "budget time", with Chairman Pistor explaining that
the books have to be checked and audited as of October 1, and the
budget has to be prepared before that date. 3e said there was no
way of knowing what the amounts were going to be. Mr. Hall concurred
with the Chairman's stateme . no~ing that when the budget was prepared
July 15, 1978 and reviewed, there was no way the Sheriff could determine
what kind of money he could expect to return. Mr. Hall said, with
regard to the Tax Collector, it was anticipated that approximately
th~ amount returned in excess fees would be returned and it was budgeted.
r--'"

October 17, 1978
Ha explained that $25,000 was anticipated in excess fees from the
Clerk's office with another estimated $26,000 from another area, so
.
that the amount received was a pleasant surprise and could not be
anticipated.
Further responding to Mr. Zewalk, Mr. Hall said that one reason
the millage could be reduced this year was because of the good return!
from the previous year of the same type. He said that the money will
actually go into the fund balance going into the following year.
Chairman Pistor expressed a word of caution regarding these
funds pointing out the fact that unexpected events, for example one
or two expensive murder trials in the County, could necessitate
having to return some of the funds to the Clerk during the coming
year. Hr. Hall observed that if more fees were anticipated and
budgeted for than actually materialized, the budget could not be
met and the County would be subject to criticism. He said the
approach being taken regarding these monies is a very sound one.
Mr. Egon Hill, local resident, stated that, instead of
criticizing the Board and the Constitutional Officers, the County
should be grateful for what they have done.
Chairman Pistor again expressed the appreciation of the Board
for the monies turned in with the comment that it will make the
work in the future for next year's budget calculations a little
more firm.

on September 19, 1978, until the wi~hes,of the property ow~ers of the
Subdivision are expressed by referendum vote placed on the ballot of
the next subsequent election that will be held, either regular or special.
He said there is reason to believe that the signers of the original
petition to create the District were not fully informed of what the
creation of a d~strict,means and, further, that only the proponents'
petitions were presented to the Board.
Discussion of the request followed with Commissioner Wenzel
making a motion to rescind the Board action previously taken until
a ballot referendum is held, which, as pointed out by County Attorney
PiCkworth, could be included in the special election to be held in
January or February of 1979. It was suggested by Commissioner Wimer
that the District be left intact and proceed with the referendum vote
which, if it passes, would not cause any delays in the formation of the
District and which would save construction costs, and the like. Com-
missioner Wenzel reworded his motion to state that the Board authorize
the staff to take no further action with regard to the creation of
the North Naples Lighting District. Commissioner Wimer observed that
certain work would have to be done regarding the preparation of the
ballot, and the like. The motion died for a lack of a second.
Following additional brief discussion, Commissioner Wenzel moved
that no funds be expended r~garding the creation of the North Naples
Lighting District prior to the straw vota being held to let the people
decide whether or not to con, ,nue with the District. The motion was
seconded by Commissioner Wimer.
In response to Commissioner Archer, County Engineer Barksdale
informed the Board that the street light plan has been prepared and
that the Florida Power & Light Company has been asked to begin
in Ei ta 11 a tion . However, said l-lr. Barksdale, when it was learned
,.--...,

that a new petition was being submitted, the utility company was
requested to do nothing until the issue was decided. Therefore,'
nothing has been done, said Mr. Barksdale.
Upon call for the question the motion carried 4/0 with
Commissioner Brown not,present.

needs of certain offices has been completed and an Executive Summary

cuss the proposed remOdeling during a future Workshop Sessionr however,

requested the Board to address this matter during the present session.
Deputy Tax Collectur Arthur Ayers explained the necessity for
additional space and stated that, in his opinion, the space allocated
in the plat would be sufficient for the operation of h'~ department
for a period of 3-5 years with very little problem. Chairman Pistor
commented that some of the changes cannot be made prior to November 1st
noting that the only Change at present will be the removal of the
fixed seating and tables from the meeting room so that the validation
of the tax receipts can be handled in an expeditious manner. Mr.
Ayers noted his awareness of this and stated that there will be a marked
improvement in the processing procedures over the previous years.
Property Appraiser Sam Colding urged the Board to make sure that
the design will be such that there will be no congestion around the
entrance to his offices. Chairman Pistor ,stated that this would be

PROPOSED POLICY REGARDING APPOINTMENTS TO ADVISORY BOARDS, AS SUGGESTED
IW CII1\IRH1\N PISTOR - 1\CCEPTED 1\5 A GENERAL POLICY STATEMENT
Chairman Pistor referred to his memorandum to the Board dated
October l6, 1978 wherein it is suggested that the membership on che
various advisory boards be chocked for conformance to the policy of
the Commission that each District be represented on each board where
applicable. Commissioner Wimer commented that he is unaware of such
policy with the exception of the Library Advisory Board which mandates
that membership represent each Commission District. He suggested
that such a policy would leave out too many good people who are willing
to serve on the various boards. Chairman Pistor stated that, in his
opinion, it is a good policy to try to keep each District represented
on many of the boards because it has a qood effect in that a repre-
sentative coming from each District is better able to advise the
bC'3rdR.
Following brief discussion, it was the consensus of the Board
that the policy could be adopted as a general policy but, as suggested
by Commissioner Wimer, not as a hard and fast rule.
Commissioner Wenzel moved that the quidelines outlined in the
subject memorandum be adopted as a qeneral policy statement. The
motion was seconded by Commissioner Archer and carried 4/0 with
Commissioner Brown not present.
