Request from Gene Pauldine, for waiver of 2-hour moving reguirement/Peddler's License to sell
Fireworks.
Gene Pauldine, 706 Ashly Court, Casselberry, appeared and reported that his family-
owned business has sold Christmas Trees/Fireworks in the City of Sanford for the past three
years. Further, he considered a site in Orange County, but did not pursue same because it
was his understanding that he would still be allowed to sell fireworks in Sanford. Also, he
has already invested $5,000.00 in this endeavor, and now it is too late to secure a site in
Orange County.
City Manager reported that he discussed the situation with City Attorney prior to
tonight's meeting, that Mr. Pauline either did not receive information relative to the City
Commission's action on September 23, 1991, which was to no longer grant waivers of City Code
18-71, or misinterpreted the information received. Further, City Code permits the sale of
Christmas Trees by local nOt-for-profit civic organizations, and that no similar provision
exists for anything other than Christmas Trees. Further, Mr. Pauldine does not have a
location within a store to sell fireworks, but rather the usual tent arrangement.
Mayor Smith reported that local merchants, who pay taxes and support the community
year round, should be given the opportunity to sell fireworks.
On recommendation of City Manager, Commissioner McClanahan moved to deny reques$
for waiver of 2-hour moving requirement.
