Final Dune Walkover review, South 15 feet of Lot 92 East, Highland
• Beach, Florida. Submitted by Casuarina Condo Association, Inc.
Mr. Joseph Lane, Vice President of Casuarina Condominium Association
and Mr. Michael Dent, resident of Casuarina were present. Mr. Lane
reported to the Planning Board that Casuarina is a 54 unit condo
located on the west side of A-1-A. Directly across from the building,
on the east side of A-1-A, Casuarina has a 15' recorded easement that
runs from A-1-A to the high water mark. Mr. Lane noted when the
previous developer landscaped the easement with cement and a gate, it
only went to the dune line.
Mr. Michael Dent reviewed the application and all attachments with the
Planning Board Members. Mr. Dent noted the dune walkover will be built
on the north side of the easement, due to the fact that there is a
sharp drop on the south side. Mr. Dent noted the dune walkover was not
built originally due to the death of the developer and problems with
the bank.
Mr. Ward noted he had reviewed the site with Mr. Dent and reviewed all
plans with the former Building Official, Ed Hardy, noting all plans
were in order and in compliance.
Town Manager Mariano noted Mr. Dent has gone through the required
approval process and everything is in conformance.
Upon questioning, all Planning Board Members stated they felt every-
thing was in order, and had no objections to approving the plans.
