EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
To inform the Board of County Commissioners of setback issues concerning the
replacement of a pool screen enclosure,
OBJECTIVE: To inform the Board of County Commissioners of the staffs intent to
issue a conditional building permit for a replacement pool screen enclosure that was
erroneously permitted in 1991. Due to this error, it is requested that the permit be issued to
erect the screen enclosure on the existing footprint, under the condition that the applicant
apply for a dimensional variance within 6 months of its issuance, and that the fees for the
variance, application and advertising costs totaling $3,000 be waived by the Board of
County Commissioners.
CONSIDERATIONS: The subject property is an existing single-family residential
dwelling unit located at 8923 Lely Island Circle, in the Lely Resort PUD zoning district.
The property abuts a lake in the rear and two existing single-family dwelling units on each
side. The original pool enclosure was permitted and a certificate of occupancy was issued
to the property owner at the completion of its construction in 1991.
The property owner recently removed the screen enclosure to resurface the pool deck and
to upgrade the enclosure to the current building code. Unbeknownst to the property owner,
the original enclosure was permitted erroneously at a distance of 5.2 feet from the rear
property line; the minimum rear setback requirement for this property is 10 feet. When the
contractor for the property owner applied for a permit to replace the enclosure, the 19 year
old permitting error was discovered and the permit application was denied.
Pursuant to the Land Development Code, the structure cannot be replaced unless it meets
the current rear setback requirement of 10 feet. The property owner does not meet the
criteria for an administrative variance as the encroachment exceeds the maximum
allowable distance under which one would qualify. In this case, an administrative variance
could only be approved up to a maximum distance of I-foot; however the structure
encroaches 4.8 feet into the required rear yard.
The proposed replacement enclosure was reviewed for compliance with the 2007 Florida
Building Code "and the adjoining property owners have signed a letter approving the
replacement, which will meet the same footprint as the original enclosure. Furthermore,
the proposed enclosure does not encroach upon the 5-foot lake maintenance easement
surrounding the lake. The alternative to the issuance of the permit at this time is to seek
approval of a dimensional variance first from the Board of Zoning Appeals, however the
time required obtaining a variance and the health/safety issues that exist with having an
unprotected pool necessitates issuance of the permit at this time.

FISCAL IMPACT: The cost of a dimensional variance is approximately $3,000 ($2,000
in application fees plus advertising costs).
GROWTH MANAGEMENT IMPACT: There is no impact to the Growth Management
Plan.
LEGAL CONSIDERATION: A health safety and welfare issue exists for the timely
replacement of the pool screen enclosure. If owner is willing to assume the risks of
installing the pool screen enclosure without a variance and release the county from any
claims if the variance is not approved, then I see no legal issues to hearing the variance at a
later date. The Board has the authority to waive fees if a valid public purpose exists for
doing so. This item is ready for Board consideration and approval.--HF AC
RECOMMENDATION: To have the Board of County Commissioners approve staff's
request to issue the screen enclosure permit with the following conditions:
1. Applicant applies for a dimensional variance within 6 months of its issuance.
2. The fees for the variance, application and advertising costs totaling $3,000 are
waived by the Board of County Commissioners.
3. Receipt from owner of a letter or document that states that owner is willing to
assume the risks of installing the pool screen enclosure without a variance and
release the county from any and all claims if the variance is not approved.
