3.14 Zoning Appeal— Request for zoning appeal by John Bernazzoli, Esq.,
representing Jeremiah J. Kelly, from Growth Management Director's
determination that a proposal for a new building on property located at 2490
SW 32nd Street be denied, as it does not come into compliance within the
parameters of Section 4 of Ordinance No. 04-99 — Industrial Moratorium.
Terry Virta explained that the moratorium ordinance currently in affect allows for
modification of existing business but does not define what is meant by modification.
He stated that J.J. Kelly is proposing to construct an addition of 7, 920 square feet to
an existing building, which is only 2, 220 square feet. The dictionary definition of
modification is "a small alteration, adjustment or limitation." It was staffs opinion that
an addition that would be approximately 4 times larger than the existing structure
would not be considered a small alteration and therefore the request was denied.
Mayor Bertino and Commissioner Etling disclosed that they spoke with
representatives about the project.
Attorney John Bernazzoli, representing J. J. Kelly, argued that his Webster dictionary
defined "modification"as "a change or an alteration", it does not use the word "small".
He also argued that the moratorium only applies to heavy industrial uses and should
not apply to the use of his client's business. Mr. Bernazzoli asked the City
Commission to consider his client's appeal.
Mayor Bertino opened the public hearing. No one spoke in favor or opposition of the
request and the public hearing was closed.
Commissioner Etling felt that and expansion to Mr. Kelly's existing business should be
allowed.

based upon "outer beauty'; and
WHEREAS, the winners of the Ms. Wheelchair Florida and the Junior Miss Wheelchair pageant will not
for all disabled citizens andthe to cartional ry out the hree purposeon but sll be given the opportunity of this organization which are:
their reign to speak

architectural and attitudinal barriers;
• to enhance the personal and social development of each contestant; and
• to select a spokeswoman for the disabled citizens of Florida; and
WHEREAS, in an age where the word "disability" is, on too many occasions, considered to be
synonymous with .,inability', Ms. Wheelchair Florida and Junior Miss Wheelchair Florida, through their own

misconceptions, continue to look upon this multi-talented and inspirational group of people, as somewhat
"lesser" individuals when compared with"normal' people; and

"disability" like the word "beauty" is only in the eye of the beholder.
