Mayor Locklear opened the meeting for business legally presented. Mayor Locklear read a Proclamation to be presented to Mrs. Nell Devine in honor of her 95th birthday. Mr. Gary Wisenbaker, a candidate for State Senate, stated his campaign promises and asked for support from the residents of Tybee. Mr. Steve Smith of Coastal Empire Habitat of Humanity asked permission of Council to sell cardboard chairs, tee shirts and hand out literature to beach users that are interested in helping build houses. This would occur for one month. Councilmember O'Dell asked if Mr. Smith had contacted any merchants about selling in front of their place of business as the City does not allow selling on the beach. Councilmember O'Dell said that he feels this is a very good cause and should be supported. Councilmember Youmans said that he would agree as long as the cardboard chairs are not left as litter on the beach and in the streets of Tybee. Mrs. Teri Gruendl of the Marine Science Center asked permission of Council to close off a portion of the parking lot from the MSC to 16th Street in order to hold a small festival on August 13th from 11 a.m. until 4 p.m. Councilmember Youmans said he has no objections if the traffic will be allowed to flow. Mrs. Gruendl asked if barricades could be provided by the Police Department in order to block off the west section of the lot. Councilmember Youmans said that DPW handled the barricades and that yes the Marine Science Center can use them. Ms. Gruendl stated that the reason for the festival is to raise money to supplement the MSC's expenditures. Mrs. Gruendl announced that a beach walk is planned for July 27th. Councilmember O'Dell asked if the MSC was charging an admittance fee. Mrs. Gruendl answered no because the building was federally funded when it was built. Mrs. Fripp will look into the answer concerning charging a fee. Mallory Pearce, Co- Chairman, of the Environmental Committee asked Council to specify 2 areas as parks: 1) Lovell behind the Hunter House off 17th Street; and 2) area off Highway 80 on the north side between 6th Avenue and Maple Street. Councilmember Youmans asked not to include the area off 17th Street because the 1 1 1 City may construct a new water tank on that site. Councilmember Jackson said that the area around the new tank could be used as a park. Councilmember Remeta moved to approve the parks contingent upon a survey. Councilmember Jackson seconded. Councilmember Hughes stated that she is all in favor of parks but has a problem with parking. Mr. Pearce said that parking could be addressed at a later date. Councilmember O'Dell said other areas of city owned property are already designated as parks. Mr. Pearce answered that the committee is trying to protect natural areas. Vote by Council was 4 in favor (Youmans, Remeta, Wildi, Jackson); 1 opposed (O'Dell); 1 abstain (Hughes).

Mrs. Westmoreland stated that this area is needed in order to make the 12 lots of record into 11 lots of record and that no houses would encroach on the land within the DNR jurisdiction line. It will be for view only. Mrs. Westmoreland said that Charles and Iris Bishop have owned the property since the 1950's. Councilmember Remeta moved to table and send to Planning Commission. Councilmember Jackson seconded the motion. Councilmember Hughes said Mr. Remion needs street deeded now and then go to Planning Commission for subdivision.

Mayor Locklear stated of course, and for the Board to submit names for consideration. Mr.s Jackie Brown, Clerk of Council, stated that the meeting are being advertised as required by Georgia law. Mrs. Berta Adams gave the Beach Task Force's July report on the beach renourishment project. It is to begin at the end August or the first of September.

Mayor Locklear answered that it is on track and about 45 days ahead of schedule, with a projected completion date of March 96. Mayor Locklear opened the public hearing on a height variance petitioned by Mr. Tommy Clark, 404 Butler Avenue, PIN 4- 4-20-1A. Mr. Clark said that he has a revised height that he believes is workable for himself and the City. Attorney Thomas Mahoney representing Mr. Clark introduced Mr. Kern who did measurements on the Ocean Plaza for comparison on Mr. Clark's petition of 44.4 feet. Mr. Mahoney stated that he looked long and hard at this petition. The condo project is in a C -1 zoning district. The Planning Commission recommended approval on Mr. Clark's first request of 49 feet. The Mayor and Council rejected it. The Planning Commission has now recommended approval of the 44.4 feet variance. Councilmember Remeta asked if this was a 4 story structure with parking underneath. Mr. Clark answered yes, and that he has trimmed off the fat. Councilmember Youmans stated that this is the same situation as last months' petition. Section 8 -4 -32 was written during a past administration on which he served so that there would be fire protection in the ordinance. Ms. Angela Byers, Zoning Administrator, stated that 2 height variances in the C -1 Zone have been approved since the ordinance has been in effect: Ocean Plaza and the Sands Motel. Mayor Locklear asked if anyone wished to speak in favor of the variance. Mayor Locklear asked if anyone wished to speak against the variance. Mr. Rich Parker, son of property owner from Center Street said construction would block his parents view and the breeze from the ocean. Attorney Darrin McCuller, representing citizens and residents of the area, stated that Mr. Clark is asking for the same as last month with the exception of 3 feet. Mr. McCuller asked the audience who oppose this variance to please stand. A large number of citizens stood in opposition. Mr. McCuller said that Mr. Clark's arguments do not sell and urge the Council not to buy it, 35 feet is the law, without grounds for a variance being met you must deny, there is no evidence of hardship. Mr. Jim Kluttz spoke against quoting Mr. Clark's answer to a question asked by Planning Commission - If you knocked off the top floor, would you still make money? Mr. Clark's answer was yes. Mr. Jay Helstrom spoke against. Mrs. Fripp read a letter from Lester Shearouse against the variance. Mr. Mahoney said that a family should have an oceanview but Georgia law does not allow this and there is no recourse. Mr Mahoney stated that Councilmember Youmans hit it on head when he said that the ordinance restrictions, over 35 feet were put there for fire safety. Please apply reason, this is a non - combustible building, with proper fire codes and protection. Mr. Harry Spirides asked if this building would be sprinkled? Mr. Mahoney answered yes. Mayor Locklear closed the hearing. Councilmember Youmans moved to approve the variance. Councilmember Jackson seconded. City Attorney Hughes gave his opinion and explained duties to the Council. Vote by Council was 4 in favor (Hughes, Youmans, O'Dell, Jackson); Opposed (Remeta, Wildi). 1 1 Mayor Locklear opened the public hearing on the charter change on air rights. City Attorney Hughes read the charter change for its second reading. Bert Barrett, Jr. spoke in favor of the amendment. John Hutton spoke against the change and stated 3 reasons: 1) Public Domain Section 65 will be in conflict with charter if 66 SS is adopted; 2) Taxes - no tools for taxing air right property; and. 3) Zoning requirements, traffic, parking. Mayor Locklear closed the hearing. Councilmember O'Dell moved to table until further study can be completed. Councilmember Youmans seconded. City Attorney Hughes said you cannot table unless you want to start all over. Councilmember O'Dell said that more information about crossover of streets and roads, fees should be thought out first before conveying title to anyone. Mayor Locklear answered that all these questioned posed by Councilmember O'Dell would be answered during negotiations with the individuals requesting approval for specific air rights as designated sites in the C -1 zone. Councilmember Hughes said that this change is not about one specific property. Councilmember Youmans read a letter from City Attorney to Mayor Locklear concerning Ocean Plaza air rights. Mayor Locklear stated Mr. Spirides' inquires did precipitate this amendment to the charter. Councilmember Hughes stated this amendment must pass.
