00:08:25,514 --> 00:08:26,281
is what is it that's preventing

198
00:08:26,281 --> 00:08:29,170
you from communicating with the

199
00:08:29,170 --> 00:08:29,718
building department about

200
00:08:29,718 --> 00:08:32,118
proceeding forward with this?

201
00:08:32,688 --> 00:08:33,222
are you preventing what what's

202
00:08:33,222 --> 00:08:33,955
preventing you from

203
00:08:33,955 --> 00:08:36,355
communicating with city staff

204
00:08:37,226 --> 00:08:37,993
and the building department to

205
00:08:37,993 --> 00:08:39,895
proceed forward with getting an

206
00:08:39,895 --> 00:08:42,295
appropriate permit for these

207
00:08:43,966 --> 00:08:45,966
repairs?

208
00:08:47,937 --> 00:08:48,271
You're asking me what in that

209
00:08:48,271 --> 00:08:50,271
report?

210
00:08:51,240 --> 00:08:52,700
>> I'm asking why you're not

211
00:08:52,700 --> 00:08:52,408
communicating with the building

212
00:08:52,408 --> 00:08:54,408
department.

213
00:08:58,781 --> 00:08:59,615
>> why did I apply for office

214
00:08:59,615 --> 00:09:02,150
permit for all electrical

215
00:09:03,786 --> 00:09:04,860
systems that they completed?

216
00:09:04,860 --> 00:09:06,860
Okay.

217
00:09:13,620 --> 00:09:13,663
And the best inspection the

218
00:09:13,663 --> 00:09:13,996
inspections delivered.

219
00:09:13,996 --> 00:09:15,996
>> okay.

220
00:09:16,999 --> 00:09:17,266
Do you believe you're done with

221
00:09:17,266 --> 00:09:17,966
the.

222
00:09:17,966 --> 00:09:21,566
No, I'm still working on it.

223
00:09:21,603 --> 00:09:22,772
Okay.

224
00:09:22,772 --> 00:09:24,474
I know I let you know I didn't

225
00:09:24,474 --> 00:09:27,343
go in for the minor things

226
00:09:27,343 --> 00:09:30,343
which are whichever it was.

227
00:09:35,184 --> 00:09:37,184
Questionable stuff I.

228
00:09:38,354 --> 00:09:42,554
>> I wasn't able to fix it and

229
00:09:44,994 --> 00:09:45,361
I spent all that to fix their

230
00:09:45,361 --> 00:09:45,661
property.

231
00:09:45,661 --> 00:09:47,661
Okay.

232
00:09:52,101 --> 00:09:53,360
So I did whatever.

233
00:09:53,360 --> 00:09:53,904
>> so the photographs that this

234
00:09:53,904 --> 00:09:56,904
board is currently looking at

235
00:09:58,374 --> 00:09:58,641
are.

236
00:09:58,641 --> 00:09:58,908
Yes.

237
00:09:58,908 --> 00:10:00,908
Yes.

238
00:10:05,140 --> 00:10:05,481
This

239
00:10:05,481 --> 00:10:05,915
okay?

240
00:10:05,915 --> 00:10:06,215
Yeah, I will.

241
00:10:06,215 --> 00:10:08,215
Okay.

242
00:10:09,619 --> 00:10:10,353
So again there you go.

243
00:10:10,353 --> 00:10:10,754
We'll be able to hear each

244
00:10:10,754 --> 00:10:12,455
other now.

245
00:10:12,455 --> 00:10:13,322
So the photographs that we're

246
00:10:13,322 --> 00:10:16,592
looking at here are months old

247
00:10:16,592 --> 00:10:17,260
obviously what is the current

248
00:10:17,260 --> 00:10:17,961
condition of the property?

249
00:10:17,961 --> 00:10:20,960
What is your plan for next

250
00:10:20,960 --> 00:10:20,630
steps?

251
00:10:20,630 --> 00:10:22,630
>> all right.

252
00:10:24,000 --> 00:10:24,668
There are some pictures of that

253
00:10:24,668 --> 00:10:25,335
property inside and outside

254
00:10:25,335 --> 00:10:28,335
compared to what you see.

255
00:10:28,738 --> 00:10:29,172
There's nothing that looks like

256
00:10:29,172 --> 00:10:31,172
this all gone.

257
00:10:32,943 --> 00:10:35,812
And what are the plans for the

258
00:10:35,812 --> 00:10:36,579
private property?

259
00:10:36,579 --> 00:10:36,880
What are your plans for next

260
00:10:36,880 --> 00:10:38,880
steps?

261
00:10:41,485 --> 00:10:42,252
There's saying they need to

262
00:10:42,252 --> 00:10:45,122
have I wrote down that paper

263
00:10:45,122 --> 00:10:48,491
and that paper has a link I

264
00:10:48,491 --> 00:10:49,590
have to if I can get that paper

265
00:10:49,590 --> 00:10:51,295
I will look at it.

266
00:10:51,295 --> 00:10:52,262
Okay.

267
00:10:52,262 --> 00:10:55,732
So what it is right now I want

268
00:10:55,732 --> 00:10:59,202
you to paint inside and they

269
00:10:59,202 --> 00:11:02,840
one of the people that came and

270
00:11:02,840 --> 00:11:03,306
those homeless people they did

271
00:11:03,306 --> 00:11:05,306
graffiti inside.

272
00:11:09,913 --> 00:11:10,547
And I'm trying to not try to I

273
00:11:10,547 --> 00:11:12,782
have to paint the whole

274
00:11:12,782 --> 00:11:14,782
building inside.

275
00:11:15,853 --> 00:11:19,453
And also I'm putting two new

276
00:11:20,230 --> 00:11:23,261
toilets and I have to do

277
00:11:23,261 --> 00:11:25,661
questionable to interior doors

278
00:11:26,830 --> 00:11:27,564
which I'm replacing it and also

279
00:11:27,564 --> 00:11:29,964
the whatever maintenance needs

280
00:11:30,600 --> 00:11:33,600
to be done inside outside.

281
00:11:33,671 --> 00:11:34,638
So I'm on it.

282
00:11:34,638 --> 00:11:37,774
And do you currently have a

283
00:11:37,774 --> 00:11:38,509
contractor that's working on

284
00:11:38,509 --> 00:11:41,110
getting you prices or do you

285
00:11:41,110 --> 00:11:41,244
intend to do this work yourself

286
00:11:41,244 --> 00:11:43,244
?

287
00:11:45,183 --> 00:11:49,383
That I for the for drywall I

288
00:11:49,487 --> 00:11:52,487
have permit to do myself.

289
00:11:54,250 --> 00:11:57,270
I'm a handyman also I did a

290
00:11:57,270 --> 00:12:00,970
dental work in my past so I

291
00:12:00,970 --> 00:12:04,297
know most of the this work so

292
00:12:06,204 --> 00:12:09,804
it's not a big thing study.

293
00:12:10,507 --> 00:12:14,707
I have a question on your roof.

294
00:12:14,812 --> 00:12:15,246
I don't see a roof inspection

295
00:12:15,246 --> 00:12:16,470
and details.

296
00:12:16,470 --> 00:12:18,816
>> I'm still looking here and

297
00:12:18,816 --> 00:12:21,952
it was leaking a few spots

298
00:12:21,952 --> 00:12:24,352
which I fixed it.

299
00:12:26,570 --> 00:12:27,250
Okay because I still see mildew

300
00:12:27,250 --> 00:12:27,625
a stasis maybe you in the walls

301
00:12:27,625 --> 00:12:29,625
in there.

302
00:12:35,433 --> 00:12:36,167
So I guess you pass the roof

303
00:12:36,167 --> 00:12:39,167
inspection so you're ready for

304
00:12:39,437 --> 00:12:40,338
paint.

305
00:12:40,338 --> 00:12:44,538
And so what your next step is

306
00:12:44,609 --> 00:12:46,845
going to be paint or not ready

307
00:12:46,845 --> 00:12:47,645
for anything.

308
00:12:47,645 --> 00:12:48,346
The interior walls you've done

309
00:12:48,346 --> 00:12:51,346
that you've done the drywall

310
00:12:51,782 --> 00:12:52,417
repair.

311
00:12:52,417 --> 00:12:55,417
I did not do yet.

312
00:12:56,220 --> 00:12:56,788
I'm still collecting all the

313
00:12:56,788 --> 00:12:57,540
still doing terrible.

314
00:12:57,540 --> 00:12:57,322
Yes.

315
00:12:57,322 --> 00:12:57,589
Yes.

316
00:12:57,589 --> 00:12:57,890
Yes.

317
00:12:57,890 --> 00:12:58,189
Yeah.

318
00:12:58,189 --> 00:12:59,357
Okay.

319
00:12:59,357 --> 00:13:02,660
So what's your plan of action

320
00:13:02,660 --> 00:13:03,128
and what's your timeframe for

321
00:13:03,128 --> 00:13:05,128
fixing the home?

322
00:13:06,931 --> 00:13:10,531
I'm doing as quick as possible

323
00:13:10,835 --> 00:13:11,335
because I have I'm doing I have

324
00:13:11,335 --> 00:13:13,335
another project.

325
00:13:14,406 --> 00:13:15,730
You have another project?

326
00:13:15,730 --> 00:13:15,373
No, I mean not here.

327
00:13:15,373 --> 00:13:17,373
Okay.

328
00:13:18,877 --> 00:13:19,744
I'm busy in a different things

329
00:13:19,744 --> 00:13:22,313
are there so as as much as I.

330
00:13:22,313 --> 00:13:22,781
I have first priority as soon

331
00:13:22,781 --> 00:13:23,810
aseave time.

332
00:13:23,810 --> 00:13:25,810
Right.

333
00:13:25,750 --> 00:13:29,350
Go ahead and do the job.

334
00:13:30,221 --> 00:13:30,756
Okay.

335
00:13:30,756 --> 00:13:32,624
One more question.

336
00:13:32,624 --> 00:13:32,858
Yeah, I have a question for you

337
00:13:32,858 --> 00:13:33,625
.

338
00:13:33,625 --> 00:13:34,325
There were questions in regards

339
00:13:34,325 --> 00:13:36,661
to the aluminum structure the

340
00:13:36,661 --> 00:13:37,395
aluminum addition that was

341
00:13:37,395 --> 00:13:37,695
built on to the back of the

342
00:13:37,695 --> 00:13:39,695
house.

343
00:13:39,798 --> 00:13:40,499
You know what I'm talking about

344
00:13:40,499 --> 00:13:43,499
that aluminum room that was

345
00:13:43,935 --> 00:13:44,569
built there were questions in

346
00:13:44,569 --> 00:13:46,969
regards to the aluminum

347
00:13:47,506 --> 00:13:51,106
structure that was added to the

348
00:13:51,977 --> 00:13:56,177
back of the house has one other

349
00:13:56,949 --> 00:13:59,418
thing was they inspected in one

350
00:13:59,418 --> 00:14:02,418
speak and art that was

351
00:14:02,488 --> 00:14:06,880
inspected it when I apply like

352
00:14:06,458 --> 00:14:09,458
1213 years ago there was the

353
00:14:10,296 --> 00:14:10,596
permitted and engineered.

354
00:14:10,596 --> 00:14:12,596
Okay.

355
00:14:13,599 --> 00:14:14,333
So so I'm understanding that is

356
00:14:14,333 --> 00:14:16,733
not engineered for habitation.

357
00:14:17,502 --> 00:14:18,203
It is engineered green room but

358
00:14:18,203 --> 00:14:21,540
not for a part of your house

359
00:14:21,540 --> 00:14:22,208
for an interior living space.

360
00:14:22,208 --> 00:14:22,574
Was that addressed by the

361
00:14:22,574 --> 00:14:24,574
engineer?

362
00:14:25,878 --> 00:14:26,245
Yeah, that he checked it out.

363
00:14:26,245 --> 00:14:27,746
Whatever.

364
00:14:27,746 --> 00:14:30,746
He checked the whole building.

365
00:14:31,818 --> 00:14:32,551
There was two engineers.

366
00:14:32,551 --> 00:14:35,254
And are your intentions with

367
00:14:35,254 --> 00:14:35,954
that room to try to make it

368
00:14:35,954 --> 00:14:39,554
living space again or are you

369
00:14:40,393 --> 00:14:41,940
trying to tear that down from

370
00:14:41,940 --> 00:14:41,627
this green room on the back?

371
00:14:41,627 --> 00:14:43,627
The aluminum room?

372
00:14:44,163 --> 00:14:46,563
No, no, no, no.

373
00:14:48,133 --> 00:14:48,868
Not on the porch on the back on

374
00:14:48,868 --> 00:14:49,168
that there's going to be porch

375
00:14:49,168 --> 00:14:49,902
space.

376
00:14:49,902 --> 00:14:53,502
Yeah, porch both to the front

377
00:14:53,939 --> 00:14:55,939
and back.

378
00:14:58,510 --> 00:15:02,710
And so it was also using the

379
00:15:05,180 --> 00:15:08,180
system for the building is

380
00:15:08,688 --> 00:15:10,688
concerned.

381
00:15:12,291 --> 00:15:12,926
I mean we have an engineer this

382
00:15:12,926 --> 00:15:14,926
is structural adjustment.

383
00:15:14,928 --> 00:15:16,928
Okay?

384
00:15:22,235 --> 00:15:22,535
Based on structural.

385
00:15:22,535 --> 00:15:24,535
Okay.

386
00:15:29,776 --> 00:15:33,376
So so just for clarity, was

387
00:15:33,846 --> 00:15:36,846
there a large aluminum addition

388
00:15:37,617 --> 00:15:42,417
to the back of the home like a

389
00:15:43,723 --> 00:15:43,991

392
00:15:47,293 --> 00:15:47,828
Okay.

00:15:47,828 --> 00:15:49,828
No structure.

394
00:15:51,197 --> 00:15:53,197
All right.

395
00:15:57,271 --> 00:15:59,671

We can keep this.

415

You got that

437
00:17:27,428 --> 00:17:29,828
MISS Heidi as well

438
00:17:30,765 --> 00:17:31,432
as walker of your speaking.

439
00:17:31,432 --> 00:17:31,832
Can you speak on the

440
00:17:31,832 --> 00:17:32,366
microphone?

441
00:17:32,366 --> 00:17:33,101
Yeah, I apologize.

442
00:17:33,101 --> 00:17:33,868
Yeah, we're not capturing what

443
00:17:33,868 --> 00:17:34,369
you're saying.

444
00:17:34,369 --> 00:17:35,170
Yeah, I'm sorry.

445
00:17:35,170 --> 00:17:35,903
No, I was just saying that I

446
00:17:35,903 --> 00:17:38,139
think we should have some

447
00:17:38,139 --> 00:17:38,873
discussion.

448
00:17:38,873 --> 00:17:39,541
It does look like he's

449
00:17:39,541 --> 00:17:41,941
progressing and making an

450
00:17:42,777 --> 00:17:43,744
effort.

451
00:17:43,744 --> 00:17:46,681
so I would like to make a

452
00:17:46,681 --> 00:17:47,548
motion to give him an extended

453
00:17:47,548 --> 00:17:50,218
30 days and to see if he's

454
00:17:50,218 --> 00:17:52,218
still progressing.

455
00:17:53,888 --> 00:17:56,888
Can I second that motion?

456
00:17:56,958 --> 00:17:57,725
>> can I clarify when you're

457
00:17:57,725 --> 00:17:58,659
giving him an extended 30 days,

458
00:17:58,659 --> 00:18:01,128
do you want him to still comply

459
00:18:01,128 --> 00:18:04,128
with all the previous requests

460
00:18:04,599 --> 00:18:05,200
that were in the original order

461
00:18:05,200 --> 00:18:07,200
dated JULY 23rd, 2026?

462
00:18:08,804 --> 00:18:10,804
Yes.

463
00:18:12,941 --> 00:18:16,111
The list of five things yes.

464
00:18:16,111 --> 00:18:16,377
We have a second chance.

465
00:18:16,377 --> 00:18:18,377
Yes.

466
00:18:20,916 --> 00:18:21,416
Very very good.

467
00:18:21,416 --> 00:18:21,683
Mary five second.

468
00:18:21,683 --> 00:18:23,683
Yes.

469
00:18:25,153 --> 00:18:25,420
Mary if I could.

470
00:18:25,420 --> 00:18:25,921
Yes.

471
00:18:25,921 --> 00:18:27,288
Randolph mcmahon.

472
00:18:27,288 --> 00:18:27,555
Yeah.

473
00:18:27,555 --> 00:18:28,890
Yes.

474
00:18:28,890 --> 00:18:30,890
Frank dalton yes.

475
00:18:31,293 --> 00:18:31,960
Bob warner yes.

476
00:18:31,960 --> 00:18:34,360
Heidi hales walker yes.

477
00:18:38,500 --> 00:18:40,500
The motion carries

478
00:18:41,803 --> 00:18:42,771
.

479
00:18:42,771 --> 00:18:45,540
The next case is a request to

480
00:18:45,540 --> 00:18:45,841
appear seven a 67 cottingham

481
00:18:45,841 --> 00:18:47,275
drive.

482
00:18:47,275 --> 00:18:50,275
Officer barbara both will act

483
00:18:52,180 --> 00:18:55,180
presenting this case as belle

484
00:18:58,420 --> 00:18:59,187
de dash 200029-2026 property

485
00:18:59,187 --> 00:19:01,587
location at 67 cunningham drive

486
00:19:02,691 --> 00:19:06,261
this is a variance case the

487
00:19:06,261 --> 00:19:06,962
property owner donny and stacy

488
00:19:06,962 --> 00:19:09,362
hunt 67 cunningham drive has

489
00:19:10,466 --> 00:19:11,199
requested to appear before the

490
00:19:11,199 --> 00:19:11,900
building trade board to request

491
00:19:11,900 --> 00:19:14,302
a variance to the existing

492
00:19:14,302 --> 00:19:16,839
finished floor for the new and

493
00:19:16,839 --> 00:19:17,339
proposed additions to 67

494
00:19:17,339 --> 00:19:19,339
cunningham drive.

495
00:19:20,809 --> 00:19:23,809
They would like the floor

496
00:19:27,116 --> 00:19:30,116
elevation to be remain at 8.26

497
00:19:30,586 --> 00:19:33,322
and eight feet two inches 26in

498
00:19:33,322 --> 00:19:33,622
as originally constructed in

499
00:19:33,622 --> 00:19:35,622
2012.

500
00:19:37,626 --> 00:19:38,193
In lieu of the new ffa for new

501
00:19:38,193 --> 00:19:40,193
construction that was

502
00:19:40,496 --> 00:19:42,896
implemented during the 2020 new

503
00:19:44,670 --> 00:19:47,336
f b c r building code cycle

504
00:19:47,336 --> 00:19:48,400
requires f e to be two foot

505
00:19:48,400 --> 00:19:48,370
zero inches above the flood

506
00:19:48,370 --> 00:19:50,370
elevation.

507
00:19:51,273 --> 00:19:54,273
So they're asking for a

508
00:19:55,544 --> 00:19:56,212
variance to leave it at their

509
00:19:56,212 --> 00:19:58,612
current elevation and stead

510
00:19:58,915 --> 00:20:01,915
of meeting the new flood

511
00:20:02,985 --> 00:20:03,853
elevation.

512
00:20:03,853 --> 00:20:06,389
This is like the question I

513
00:20:06,389 --> 00:20:09,858
have is I well I guess we'll

514
00:20:09,858 --> 00:20:10,293
just let steve do his thing

515
00:20:10,293 --> 00:20:10,626
first or no.

516
00:20:10,626 --> 00:20:12,626
>> yes.

517
00:20:13,296 --> 00:20:13,763
This is not my expertise.

518
00:20:13,763 --> 00:20:15,763
What perfect.

519
00:20:20,169 --> 00:20:20,636
Thank you

520
00:20:20,636 --> 00:20:22,636
.

521
00:20:25,108 --> 00:20:25,875
Good evening again board steve

522
00:20:25,875 --> 00:20:26,309
woodworth for the city of new

523
00:20:26,309 --> 00:20:27,770
smyrna beach.

524
00:20:27,770 --> 00:20:28,978
I am in building and official

525
00:20:28,978 --> 00:20:29,746
and for the record I am state

526
00:20:29,746 --> 00:20:32,146
license building official plans

527
00:20:32,682 --> 00:20:33,316
examiner building inspector and

528
00:20:33,316 --> 00:20:35,716
an icc certified property

529
00:20:36,552 --> 00:20:37,286
maintenance inspector.

530
00:20:37,286 --> 00:20:37,620
You got a question, ma'am?

531
00:20:37,620 --> 00:20:39,620
I did.

532
00:20:43,827 --> 00:20:44,594
I guess my my question is has

533
00:20:44,594 --> 00:20:48,970
it ever flooded before in the

534
00:20:48,970 --> 00:20:48,731
past I can't speak to whatever

535
00:20:48,731 --> 00:20:51,731
it's flooded in the past.

536
00:20:51,968 --> 00:20:54,368
It hasn't flooded since 2012

537
00:20:55,238 --> 00:20:56,106
when it was constructed.

538
00:20:56,106 --> 00:20:56,807
I'd like to provide the board a

539
00:20:56,807 --> 00:20:58,807
little background information

540
00:20:58,976 --> 00:21:02,576
of why we're hearing this and

541
00:21:02,746 --> 00:21:03,513
how we got here.

542
00:21:03,513 --> 00:21:07,830
New smyrna beach is part of a

543
00:21:07,830 --> 00:21:09,483
community rating system where

544
00:21:11,388 --> 00:21:12,121
we get a a grade, if you will,

545
00:21:12,121 --> 00:21:14,758
on how we enforce the flood

546
00:21:14,758 --> 00:21:17,758
provisions of our code and

547
00:21:19,129 --> 00:21:22,129
whether they are stricter than

548
00:21:22,299 --> 00:21:23,660
the minimum standards and new

549
00:21:23,660 --> 00:21:26,660
smyrna beach decided in 2020 to

550
00:21:26,503 --> 00:21:27,370
make our code stricter than the

551
00:21:27,370 --> 00:21:27,805
minimum standards.

552
00:21:27,805 --> 00:21:30,774
>> so we got a higher grade in

553
00:21:30,774 --> 00:21:31,441
our community rating.

554
00:21:31,441 --> 00:21:31,975
So that's what we're here

555
00:21:31,975 --> 00:21:33,975
discussing tonight.

556
00:21:34,511 --> 00:21:35,212
It is not that this house was

557
00:21:35,212 --> 00:21:37,612
constructed below base flood

558
00:21:38,615 --> 00:21:39,350
elevation it when it was

559
00:21:39,350 --> 00:21:42,350
constructed it met all the

560
00:21:42,419 --> 00:21:43,860
applicable laws and our

561
00:21:43,860 --> 00:21:45,486
required freeboard since the

562
00:21:46,323 --> 00:21:46,924
time it was constructed we have

563
00:21:46,924 --> 00:21:48,924
increased our level

564
00:21:50,160 --> 00:21:50,928
of compliance.

565
00:21:50,928 --> 00:21:52,630
We've elevated our minimum

566
00:21:52,630 --> 00:21:54,630
elevation by 12in.

567
00:21:57,340 --> 00:21:57,768
So this house when it is

568
00:21:57,768 --> 00:22:00,437
improved it would meet the

569
00:22:00,437 --> 00:22:02,837
minimum requirements or it

570
00:22:03,908 --> 00:22:04,675
would be a level of substantial

571
00:22:04,675 --> 00:22:07,750
improvement which defaults into

572
00:22:08,179 --> 00:22:08,913
meeting the new flood elevation

573
00:22:08,913 --> 00:22:09,246
which is why we're here this

574
00:22:09,246 --> 00:22:11,246
evening.

575
00:22:11,916 --> 00:22:14,916
>> the house is 14 years old.

576
00:22:15,619 --> 00:22:16,287
It has not flooded however it

577
00:22:16,287 --> 00:22:19,287
would not meet our current

578
00:22:20,324 --> 00:22:22,324
minimum flood elevation.

579
00:22:23,794 --> 00:22:24,462
>> a staff report from the city

580
00:22:24,462 --> 00:22:26,462
engineering department was

581
00:22:28,199 --> 00:22:28,966
submitted with your agenda.

582
00:22:28,966 --> 00:22:31,966
It did not carry engineering

583
00:22:32,202 --> 00:22:33,700
department approval.

584
00:22:33,700 --> 00:22:35,139
>> they've worked very hard to

585
00:22:35,139 --> 00:22:39,110
get the c r d c r s words that

586
00:22:39,110 --> 00:22:39,777
and they are afraid that a

587
00:22:39,777 --> 00:22:42,177
deviation would be noticed

588
00:22:43,214 --> 00:22:43,681
under audit and we would get

589
00:22:43,681 --> 00:22:45,681
docked for that.

590
00:22:47,170 --> 00:22:47,785
With that being said, it is up

591
00:22:47,785 --> 00:22:50,754
to you if you would like to

592
00:22:50,754 --> 00:22:51,589
allow this allowance in the

593
00:22:51,589 --> 00:22:54,425
free board element not the base

594
00:22:54,425 --> 00:22:55,593
flood element.

595
00:22:55,593 --> 00:22:58,663
>> how many square feet is the

596
00:22:58,663 --> 00:22:59,530
addition do you know?

597
00:22:59,530 --> 00:23:00,310
I do not remember off the top

598
00:23:00,310 --> 00:23:02,431
of my head sir.

599
00:23:02,567 --> 00:23:03,301
I'm sure that the property

600
00:23:03,301 --> 00:23:03,968
owner has that information and

601
00:23:03,968 --> 00:23:04,335
could provide it in this

602
00:23:04,335 --> 00:23:06,170
testimony.

603
00:23:06,170 --> 00:23:08,170
>> understood.

604
00:23:11,420 --> 00:23:11,810
>> any other questions?

605
00:23:11,810 --> 00:23:12,210
>> not at this time.

606
00:23:12,210 --> 00:23:14,210
All right.

607
00:23:14,979 --> 00:23:15,780
For now for you, steve.

608
00:23:15,780 --> 00:23:16,114
>> I will be available if

609
00:23:16,114 --> 00:23:16,515
needed.

610
00:23:16,515 --> 00:23:16,915
Thank you.

611
00:23:16,915 --> 00:23:17,315
Thank you.

612
00:23:17,315 --> 00:23:19,315
Thank you.

613
00:23:21,653 --> 00:23:25,253
Is the owner here with you?

614
00:23:25,290 --> 00:23:25,790
>> I'm sorry.

615
00:23:25,790 --> 00:23:26,691
>> good evening.

616
00:23:26,691 --> 00:23:30,162
Thank you for hearing me and

617
00:23:30,162 --> 00:23:30,528
our thoughts about this

618
00:23:30,528 --> 00:23:32,528
variance.

619
00:23:33,632 --> 00:23:34,466
My name is donnie hunt.

620
00:23:34,466 --> 00:23:34,799
>> we moved here permanently in

621
00:23:34,799 --> 00:23:36,799
AUGUST.

622
00:23:37,269 --> 00:23:38,360
We bought this home about two

623
00:23:38,360 --> 00:23:38,336
years ago on the search for a

624
00:23:38,336 --> 00:23:40,336
home.

625
00:23:41,773 --> 00:23:42,730
We looked at a lot of different

626
00:23:42,730 --> 00:23:42,841
homes.

627
00:23:42,841 --> 00:23:44,943
We look at other homes in this

628
00:23:44,943 --> 00:23:45,444
neighborhood that most of the

629
00:23:45,444 --> 00:23:47,444
homes are built.

630
00:23:47,846 --> 00:23:48,714
>> I think in the 50s and 60s

631
00:23:48,714 --> 00:23:52,184
as he stated, the home was

632
00:23:52,184 --> 00:23:54,584
rebuilt 12 years 13 years ago

633
00:23:55,554 --> 00:23:55,887
we did not think we had any

634
00:23:55,887 --> 00:23:57,887
issues.

635
00:23:59,657 --> 00:24:00,625
We had the original survey.

636
00:24:00,625 --> 00:24:02,894
I didn't see it up there and my

637
00:24:02,894 --> 00:24:03,962
architect is here also and I

638
00:24:03,962 --> 00:24:05,730
think he has a copy but it does

639
00:24:05,730 --> 00:24:09,201
show the 100 year flood line in

640
00:24:09,201 --> 00:24:11,370
the front of the house at sachs

641
00:24:11,370 --> 00:24:14,970
foot which is fema's line with

642
00:24:16,410 --> 00:24:19,770
that being said, we felt we

643
00:24:19,770 --> 00:24:21,770
were meeting everything.

644
00:24:23,348 --> 00:24:26,818
We were unaware of the extra

645
00:24:26,818 --> 00:24:30,589
12in I least I was and so we

646
00:24:30,589 --> 00:24:31,257
bought this house thinking

647
00:24:31,257 --> 00:24:31,857
we've got a house that's

648
00:24:31,857 --> 00:24:32,591
already been rebuilt.

649
00:24:32,591 --> 00:24:34,360
>> it's it's way higher than

650
00:24:34,360 --> 00:24:35,327
the neighbors.

651
00:24:35,327 --> 00:24:37,596
i have a picture and I can give

652
00:24:37,596 --> 00:24:38,330
this to you guys to pass around

653
00:24:38,330 --> 00:24:40,730
extremely higher than the

654
00:24:41,167 --> 00:24:41,934
neighbors house.

655
00:24:41,934 --> 00:24:44,334
>> this portion that they're

656
00:24:45,904 --> 00:24:46,672
talking about is only a back

657
00:24:46,672 --> 00:24:49,608
bedroom which is going to turn

658
00:24:49,608 --> 00:24:53,790
into a dining area, a bathroom

659
00:24:53,790 --> 00:24:53,412
and part of another current

660
00:24:53,412 --> 00:24:54,113
bedroom.

661
00:24:54,113 --> 00:24:57,113
>> we are not changing that

662
00:24:57,382 --> 00:24:58,150
part of the slab at all.

663
00:24:58,150 --> 00:24:58,884
What we're doing is taken off

664
00:24:58,884 --> 00:25:01,884
the garage on the front

665
00:25:01,888 --> 00:25:02,655
enlarging it and going to store

666
00:25:02,655 --> 00:25:05,791
two stories with it with hopes

667
00:25:05,791 --> 00:25:06,593
that we have three kids that

668
00:25:06,593 --> 00:25:10,793
there will be room for them to

669
00:25:12,765 --> 00:25:13,298
come home to the lines that

670
00:25:13,298 --> 00:25:15,298
they talked about.

671
00:25:19,305 --> 00:25:19,906
Fema's line we we are above by

672
00:25:19,906 --> 00:25:22,306
one foot this state.

673
00:25:23,409 --> 00:25:26,409
We are above the county.

674
00:25:26,579 --> 00:25:26,879
We are above because we're at

675
00:25:26,879 --> 00:25:28,879
8.26.

676
00:25:29,449 --> 00:25:33,490
It's just the extra 12in we've

677
00:25:33,860 --> 00:25:36,860
talked about the house flooding

678
00:25:36,355 --> 00:25:38,355
since 2016.

679
00:25:40,126 --> 00:25:40,526
There's been one, two, three,

680
00:25:40,526 --> 00:25:41,261
four, five.

681
00:25:41,261 --> 00:25:44,261
There's been sachs storms cat

682
00:25:44,296 --> 00:25:44,831
two kapoor, cat five, carrefour

683
00:25:44,831 --> 00:25:45,532
cat one got three.

684
00:25:45,532 --> 00:25:47,700
The home has never flooded.

685
00:25:47,700 --> 00:25:50,937
I asked that when we purchased

686
00:25:50,937 --> 00:25:51,604
that small portion that falls 7

687
00:25:51,604 --> 00:25:52,380
or 8in short is the big

688
00:25:52,380 --> 00:25:54,380
question here.

689
00:25:54,807 --> 00:25:58,378
I was also told by city staff

690
00:25:58,378 --> 00:26:01,978
that if my dollar amount wasn't

691
00:26:02,148 --> 00:26:02,816
above 50% they wouldn't even

692
00:26:02,816 --> 00:26:05,216
care about this elevation.

693
00:26:08,688 --> 00:26:09,323
So I'm just here saying this

694
00:26:09,323 --> 00:26:10,289
house is 13 years old.

695
00:26:10,289 --> 00:26:13,159
I really don't want to have to

696
00:26:13,159 --> 00:26:13,994
tear it down and start over.

697
00:26:13,994 --> 00:26:17,164
I've already moved out of the

698
00:26:17,164 --> 00:26:20,534
house because I have a pool

699
00:26:20,534 --> 00:26:21,368
contractor who's already got

700
00:26:21,368 --> 00:26:24,671
his permit to start the job.

701
00:26:24,671 --> 00:26:25,205
he was actually going to start

702
00:26:25,205 --> 00:26:26,600
and I halted him.

703
00:26:26,600 --> 00:26:28,842
We're not in the home anymore.

704
00:26:28,842 --> 00:26:30,377
We're out in another home and

705
00:26:30,377 --> 00:26:33,977
time and just going to delay

706
00:26:34,848 --> 00:26:35,548
and delay and delay just trying

707
00:26:35,548 --> 00:26:38,585
to make this our final home.

708
00:26:38,585 --> 00:26:39,352
And I don't know if there's

709
00:26:39,352 --> 00:26:41,688
anything else that my architect

710
00:26:41,688 --> 00:26:41,921
mark can add if you don't mind

711
00:26:41,921 --> 00:26:43,921
.

712
00:26:45,125 --> 00:26:47,125
Sure.

713
00:26:50,230 --> 00:26:52,230
So that's fine.

714
00:26:57,738 --> 00:26:58,710
So so good evening.

715
00:26:58,710 --> 00:26:58,605
>> hi.

716
00:26:58,605 --> 00:26:59,306
I'm martin israel.

717
00:26:59,306 --> 00:27:00,574
I'm the architect of can you

718
00:27:00,574 --> 00:27:01,341
speak into the microphone?

719
00:27:01,341 --> 00:27:03,677
I am mark nasrallah, the

720
00:27:03,677 --> 00:27:05,677
architect of record.

721
00:27:06,947 --> 00:27:07,915
I've been working in new smyrna

722
00:27:07,915 --> 00:27:10,851
since the 80s so I am aware

723
00:27:10,851 --> 00:27:14,221
of all of the building codes

724
00:27:14,221 --> 00:27:14,855
and local codes ordinances and

725
00:27:14,855 --> 00:27:17,255
I hate making mistakes.

726
00:27:18,359 --> 00:27:21,959
When we went into this project

727
00:27:22,329 --> 00:27:25,566
we got our survey with all

728
00:27:25,566 --> 00:27:26,400
of our bfi's everything we done

729
00:27:26,400 --> 00:27:30,000
added the fema lines which is

730
00:27:30,204 --> 00:27:30,938
the very first thing I told

731
00:27:30,938 --> 00:27:32,707
lonnie we have to do because

732
00:27:32,707 --> 00:27:33,400
we've done a lot of work on the

733
00:27:33,400 --> 00:27:35,400
water.

734
00:27:35,909 --> 00:27:36,544
We understand there is a two

735
00:27:36,544 --> 00:27:39,379
foot minimum about the fee

736
00:27:39,379 --> 00:27:40,114
we're required for.

737
00:27:40,114 --> 00:27:43,114
Our survey right there in

738
00:27:43,985 --> 00:27:46,320
yellow says flood plain 6.0

739
00:27:46,320 --> 00:27:48,320
we're at 8.23.

740
00:27:49,323 --> 00:27:50,230
I said we're good to go here is

741
00:27:50,230 --> 00:27:53,230
not the first seven elevation

742
00:27:54,395 --> 00:27:57,432
on this and when it says that's

743
00:27:57,432 --> 00:27:58,165
my fema line we just assumed

744
00:27:58,165 --> 00:28:01,165
terrible word that we're good

745
00:28:01,536 --> 00:28:02,203
to go it wasn't until

746
00:28:02,203 --> 00:28:04,603
engineering pointed out and

747
00:28:04,739 --> 00:28:05,472
even our we have a civil

748
00:28:05,472 --> 00:28:08,472
engineer david blunt he's never

749
00:28:08,843 --> 00:28:09,710
even seen it this back left

750
00:28:09,710 --> 00:28:12,647
corner of the house has a seven

751
00:28:12,647 --> 00:28:13,414
touch unit and we don't know

752
00:28:13,414 --> 00:28:16,785
why we can't explain it because

753
00:28:16,785 --> 00:28:17,552
the elevation back there is

754
00:28:17,552 --> 00:28:20,388
five and four and everything is

755
00:28:20,388 --> 00:28:21,188
falling off and why we have a

756
00:28:21,188 --> 00:28:23,925
seven at that back corner we're

757
00:28:23,925 --> 00:28:24,592
like you know we we don't

758
00:28:24,592 --> 00:28:26,992
understand but it's there.

759
00:28:27,528 --> 00:28:28,395
It's on the fema map.

760
00:28:28,395 --> 00:28:30,531
I did not check the fema map

761
00:28:30,531 --> 00:28:31,299
because my surveyor said we're

762
00:28:31,299 --> 00:28:34,369
at sachs so we that's why we

763
00:28:34,369 --> 00:28:36,769
have a finished product.

764
00:28:38,720 --> 00:28:38,472
I'm not one to do and ask for

765
00:28:38,472 --> 00:28:39,240
forgiveness.

766
00:28:39,240 --> 00:28:42,100
We had everything we thought we

767
00:28:42,100 --> 00:28:42,944
had everything we thought

768
00:28:42,944 --> 00:28:46,544
checked out done is done as

769
00:28:48,349 --> 00:28:48,650
mentioned we're nine inches

770
00:28:48,650 --> 00:28:50,650
short.

771
00:28:51,486 --> 00:28:52,187
The majority of the

772
00:28:52,187 --> 00:28:54,587
construction proposed is the

773
00:28:56,491 --> 00:28:57,258
garage and above the garage the

774
00:28:57,258 --> 00:29:00,258
main house pretty much remains.

775
00:29:00,329 --> 00:29:01,620
We have because I told him

776
00:29:01,620 --> 00:29:04,620
don't touch the existing house

777
00:29:05,267 --> 00:29:05,601
it's good let's build a by the

778
00:29:05,601 --> 00:29:07,350
garage.

779
00:29:07,350 --> 00:29:10,635
So that was actually 90% of our

780
00:29:11,172 --> 00:29:14,772
work is new garage for above

781
00:29:16,645 --> 00:29:17,312
which is about 2000ft so and

782
00:29:17,312 --> 00:29:20,312
also when we're done we're

783
00:29:21,283 --> 00:29:22,217
going to have all new windows

784
00:29:22,217 --> 00:29:25,820
to meet all of the new when

785
00:29:25,820 --> 00:29:26,421
zone loads we're going to have

786
00:29:26,421 --> 00:29:27,122
all of our all the new

787
00:29:27,122 --> 00:29:29,224
structure will meet the new

788
00:29:29,224 --> 00:29:32,824
current code so the house will

789
00:29:33,428 --> 00:29:33,995
be pretty close to meeting all

790
00:29:33,995 --> 00:29:34,797
of the current levels.

791
00:29:34,797 --> 00:29:37,165
And then as I've mentioned to

792
00:29:37,165 --> 00:29:40,765
donny we meet the federal code,

793
00:29:40,937 --> 00:29:41,637
we meet the state code, we meet

794
00:29:41,637 --> 00:29:41,937
the county code for minimum

795
00:29:41,937 --> 00:29:43,937
floor.

796
00:29:44,773 --> 00:29:45,474
It's only new smyrna that we

797
00:29:45,474 --> 00:29:48,474
are denied which is below.

798
00:29:48,477 --> 00:29:49,311
So that is what our request is

799
00:29:49,311 --> 00:29:51,780
for the variance so we

800
00:29:51,780 --> 00:29:55,117
have any questions not at this

801
00:29:55,117 --> 00:29:55,417
time, no.

802
00:29:55,417 --> 00:29:55,817
Good.

803
00:29:55,817 --> 00:29:57,817
Thank you.

804
00:30:02,191 --> 00:30:03,159
Thank you.

805
00:30:03,159 --> 00:30:06,862
I feel since the house is above

806
00:30:06,862 --> 00:30:07,463
the road that there probably

807
00:30:07,463 --> 00:30:09,863
won't be any flooding

808
00:30:10,199 --> 00:30:11,167
situations but would there be

809
00:30:11,167 --> 00:30:14,837
any problem if he goes to sell

810
00:30:14,837 --> 00:30:15,338
and doesn't have those

811
00:30:15,338 --> 00:30:17,338
requirements done?

812
00:30:17,406 --> 00:30:17,740
That's no problem in the

813
00:30:17,740 --> 00:30:19,740
future.

814
00:30:24,613 --> 00:30:28,317
I agree that is do we have a

815
00:30:28,317 --> 00:30:32,188
motion of do a motion that he

816
00:30:32,188 --> 00:30:32,955
does not have to improve the

817
00:30:32,955 --> 00:30:35,925
property to or he doesn't have

818
00:30:35,925 --> 00:30:36,759
to do the elevation in order to

819
00:30:36,759 --> 00:30:39,795
get a permit to complete the

820
00:30:39,795 --> 00:30:40,329
house??

821
00:30:40,329 --> 00:30:42,329
That's correct.

822
00:30:45,902 --> 00:30:46,135
I second that for the variance

823
00:30:46,135 --> 00:30:48,135
.

824
00:30:51,507 --> 00:30:52,740
Mary baker yes.

825
00:30:52,740 --> 00:30:52,508
Randolph opinion yes.

826
00:30:52,508 --> 00:30:53,810
Franklin yes.

827
00:30:53,810 --> 00:30:54,377
Bob warner yes.

828
00:30:54,377 --> 00:30:56,377
Idaho's walker yes.

829
00:30:58,314 --> 00:30:58,714
The motion carries.

830
00:30:58,714 --> 00:30:59,583
Thank you.

831
00:30:59,583 --> 00:31:03,183
If you'd like to collect your

832
00:31:05,388 --> 00:31:07,388
photographs, good luck.

833
00:31:11,628 --> 00:31:13,628
Enjoy

834
00:31:20,300 --> 00:31:22,300
.

835
00:31:23,406 --> 00:31:27,577
I was just moving on to the is

836
00:31:27,577 --> 00:31:28,111
there anything else on this and

837
00:31:28,111 --> 00:31:28,946
solve the business.

838
00:31:28,946 --> 00:31:30,580
Do we have any old business to

839
00:31:30,580 --> 00:31:32,580
discuss?

840
00:31:34,484 --> 00:31:35,219

846
00:31:46,230 --> 00:31:48,365
demos this week and they'll be

847
