Good Morning Greg,
I am officially making a FOIA request for all communications, written and verbal, public announcements, minutes, the
specific town code and all town members who approved and participated in the issuance of the "early work permit"
for the dredging and excavation at Lemon Hill, Benjamin property that commenced sometime last week.

Good Morning Renee,
I understand from Trey Nazzaro that you will be handling the processing of my FOIA requests.
To confirm, I would like the minutes to the 3 meetings regarding the Lemon Hill project presented to the ARPB. Also all
communications regarding the issuance of the "early work permit" issued by the town to Mr. Benjamin to begin the
excavation of the property before proper work permits have been issued by Delray.
Additionally I would like to know when and by what process Mr. Smith left the ARPB and became a commissioner.
Sincerely,
Jennifer Morris

Dear Jennifer Morris [mail to: jdsm.64(i�gmail.coml:
The Town of Gulf Stream has received your public records requests dated August 8, 2022. You
should be able to view your original requests at the following link:
PRR 22-2903 (laserfiche.com)
Requests for information are different than requests for records. Under Florida's Public Records
Laws, the Town is not required to create a new record in order to accommodate a request for
information. See Government -In -The -Sunshine Manual at page 165 (2022).
Minutes from the ARPB meetings can be found by going to the Town's website: www.gulf-
stream.org and click on "Find a Town Record", then click the Town Clerk folder, the Minutes
folder, the ARPB folder, and then you can search by date. The dates the Lemon Hill project
were discussed were the February 25, 2021, March 25, 2021, and April 22, 2021, ARPB
meetings, as well as the May 14, 2021, Commission Meeting. We consider this request closed.
The process of Mr. Thomas Smith becoming a Commissioner was explained at the Commission
Meeting on April 8, 2022, and can be found in those minutes.
Subsequently, since this first request was made on August 8, 2022, we have received multiple
requests from you ad nauseum regarding the early work permit and information regarding FDEP
permits. You will need to reach out to the FDEP for the answers to your questions regarding
their permits.
Pursuant to the public records laws, the duty of the Town of Gulf Stream is to provide access to,
or copies of, public records at a reasonable time in reasonable conditions but only after receiving
required payments. The Town of Gulf Stream is not required to give out information from these
records nor give legal advice about these records. The Florida Statutes can be found here:
httin://www.leiz.state.fl.us/statutes/
The Town of Gulf Stream's Code of Ordinances can be found here:
hgps://www.municode.com/library/fl/gulf stream/codes/code of ordinances
The Town is required to furnish copies of records when you identify the record, or the portion of
a record, with sufficient specificity to permit the records custodian to identify the record and
when the required fee is paid. The Town has spent at least 15 minutes on your request and is
providing with you with a partial response at the same link above.
The Town estimates that to fully respond to your request will require an additional hour of
administrative support at $53.08 per hour, the labor cost of the personnel providing the service,
per Fla. Stat. § 119.07(4)(d). If the costs of producing these documents will exceed your deposit,
the Town will provide you with an initial production of responsive records and an estimate for
the production of any additional responsive records. If the costs of production are less than the
deposit, the Town will provide you with the responsive records and a refund.
(One hour @ 53.08) = Deposit Due: $53.08 in cash or check.
Upon receipt of your deposit, the Town will use its very best efforts to further respond to your
public records request in a reasonable amount of time.
Sincerely,
kT� kow*�

Arther,
Gulf -Stream has approved your early start.
Your request to start the project up to first inspection has been approved. When contacted by the Permit Technician,
please pick up and post the permit on site.
AN EARLY START ALLOWS YOU TO START WORK, HOWEVER YOU ARE PROCEEDING AT YOUR OWN RISK AS THE
RELEASED PLANS MAY BE DIFFERENT THAN ANY PLANS YOU MAY BE WORKING FROM.
PLEASE remember an early start only gets you up to first inspection. We ask you to be patient and assure you we are
doing the best we can on getting permits out.
Florida Building Code section 105.12 Work starting before permit issuance.
Upon approval of the building official, the scope of work delineated in the building permit application and plan
may be started prior to the final approval and issuance of the permit, provided any work completed is entirely at
risk of the permit applicant and the work does not proceed past the first required inspection.
