ZV. NEW BUSINE88
A) An application from Joseph and Fausta Aloe, owners of Lot
7, Block 32, Jupiter in the Pines, Section B,
Subdivision, located at 356 Church Road, requestinq a
variance to the terms of the Official Comprehensive
Zoninq Ordinance ot the villaqe of Tequesta, ordinance
No. 355, as amended, Section VII(C), Schedule of Site
Requlations, R-1 District, m�imum lot coveraqe, to allow
the construction of a 326 square foot in area addition
that will cause the subject property to euceed the
maximum allowable lot coveraqe, said coveraqe beinq
39.45% in lieu of a maximum lot coveraqe of 37�, as
required by the Zoninq Ordinance.
Howard Searcy, son-in-law of applicants, explained that it is
the desire of his wife and himself to occupy 356 Church Road
with Mr. and Mrs. Aloe, who are increasingly in need of
assistance from members of the family. Since Mr. Searcy and
his wife no longer have children at home, it is their decision
to provide for the Aloes as their age and needs increase. It
is the intention of the Searcys to assume the financial
responsibilities of the Aloe household and it would therefore
be necessary to add some semi-private living quarters at the
opposite end of the house.
The house will all be under one roof, with no changes to the
home except a small bedroom and bath with a small kitchen
unit. In order to do that, the allowed lot coverage must be
exceeded (approximately 200sf over the maximum 37$ coverage).
Scott Ladd, Clerk of the Board, reported there were no letters
of communication in the file, either for or against the
application.

--------------------------
The Board questioned the fact that, since there is planned a
second kitchen facility, if this single dwelling unit could
at some point be used as rental property because of the extra
living quarters. Mr. Ladd reported there are restrictions in
the Code against a second kitchen facility being used as
rental property. Mother-in-law apartments and maids quarters
are allowable, however.
Attorney Randolph added that a motion could include a
restriction against not renting out the second living area,
or with the.contingency that the new living area be removed
upon sale of the property, or the new owner would have to come
back for approval of the kitchen facility. Also, if there is
such a contingency in the motion, it would be necessary to
have it officially recorded.
Boardmember Kirkland moved that the application be approved
as submitted, with the contingency that the additional living
area not be used as rental property. Boardmember Nelson
seconded the motion. The vote on the motion was:
Kenneth Northamer - for
William Rirkland - for
Ray Schauer - for
Alfred DeMott - for
Edwin Nelson - for
the motion was therefore passed and adopted.
Attorney Randolph explained to the applicant that it would be
their responsibility to put together a Declaration of
Covenants and provide such to the Village. The Village would
then review the document and see that it.was recorded.
B) An application from Richard L. Nieblinq, owner of partial
Lots 5� 6, Bay Harbor Subdivision, located at 19 Bay
Harbor Road, requestinq a variance to the terms of the
� Official Compreheasive Zoninq Ordinance of the Villaqe

--------------------------
Richard Niebling gave a handout to the Board which was read
into the record. The document read:
Purpose of R.L.Nieblincx Appearance Before Board of Adjustment
1. Received Agency permits all stipulating a necessary
length of 126 LF.
2. This length (126 LF) , although a U.S. [Army) Corps [of
Engineers] stipulation, conflicts with the Tequesta rule
of 75 LF, thus a necessity for variance.
3. Dock as planned by homeowner:
o Maximum outside dimension of piling is 6'.
o Allows space between piling of 6', less (2 pilings
@ 9") 1.5' = 4.5' space between piling.
4. Homeowner can accommodate other requirements as follows:
o Minimum MLW depth of 3' - achievable with 112'
length.
o To not affect seagrass area which extends 85' + from
the seawall, plus allowing one small boat length
(18' - 30' LF) on side of dock, achievable with 112'
l.ength .
o Square footage of deck as allowed by Tequesta of 500
SF per 100 LF of waterfront = 500 SF x 1.20 = 600sf
allowable.
- Length of 112 LF x 4.5' width = 504sf
- "L" at end of dock of 6 x 15.5= 93 sf
597sf
5. All other distances or setbacks of Tequesta can be easily
achieved.
Mr. Niebling reported that having received a permit from the
Army Corp of Engineers for a 126' dock, it would be his desire
to only have a 112' dock.
Bob and Leslie Cook, neighbors of Mr. Niebling, were in
attendance and objected to a 126' dock, but were amenable to
a 112' foot dock.
