PLANNING BOARD
REGULAR MEETING - MINUTES
Wednesday, September 9, 1992 9:30 A.M.
Vice Chairman Arthur R. Keller called the Regular Meeting to order in
Commission Chambers at 9:30 A.M.
Deputy Town Clerk Doris Trinley called the roll. Present were the Vice
Chairman and Members Paul R. Kane, Jr., Leonard D. Bell, Frank L.
Colarullo and James F. Morrill. Chairman Robert L. Lowe and Member
William Maltz were absent.
Also present were Town Attorney Thomas E. Sliney, Building Official
Lee Leffingwell and members of the general public.
Upon MOTION by MR. KANE/MR. COLARULLO, the Minutes of the June 10, 1992
Regular Meeting were unanimously approved.
NEW BUSINESS
Final Review for Two (2) Dolphins at 1008 Bel Air Drive, Lots 1, 2 and
3 Highland Beach Isles. Submitted by Boca Dock & Seawall for Flammia
(Owner) .
Shelley Bodnik of Boca Dock & Seawall addressed the panel on behalf of
the owner, explaining that the location requested for the dolphins was
at the mouth of the canal, where any boat docked would take the first
brunt of wave action from the Intracoastal. He also submitted pictures
of other dolphins in the same canal. It was determined during review
of the survey drawing that the canal in question was the largest in
Town, approximately 155' wide. Mr. Flammia joined Mr. Bodnik at this
time and told the members he planned to parallel park a 36' "day" boat
that had no cabin and only a "pipe" tower; he also referred to the lo-
cation of his dock and wave action from the Intracoastal. A copy of a
letter from the management company for the condominium stating approval
for installation of the dolphins, as well as a copy of the Meeting
Minutes where this approval was determined, were submitted to the
Members (attached to and made part of these Minutes).
The Chairman duly noted that letters of opposition to this project had
been received. Those who wrote to oppose are as follows:

Eldorado Condominium Association
(All members received an individual copy of each letter of opposition;
originals are attached to and made part of these Minutes,)
In response to the Chairman's invitation to members of the audience to
voice their opinions on the project, Mr. Byron McKinley, Vice President
of Bel Lido Property Owner's Association, spoke against it. No others
came forward.
Lengthy discussion followed during which Mr. Kane advised he had
physically inspected the site and noted five (5) dolphins now existing
in the canal. Regarding interference of view, he said only the other
residents of the condominium would be affected. Upon questioning Mr.
McKinley, it was determined that the boundaries of the Bel Lido
Property Owner's Association did not lie within the confines of where
the dolphins were being requested.
Referring to Town Code Chapter 30, Section 5.2(d)(1) (copy attached to
and made part of these Minutes), the members sought Mr. Sliney's ad-
vice regarding that section specifically referring to dolphins,
particularly as some of the opposition centered around a boat being
parked perpendicular rather than parallel and thus creating a naviga-
tional hazard. It was the Town Attorney's judgment that the Code was
very discretionary, and would allow the panel to stipulate conditions
in their Motion, should they choose to approve the project.
Concluding discussion, MR. KANE/MR. COLARULLO made the following
MOTION:
THE PLANNING BOARD APPROVES THE INSTALLATION OF TWO (2)
DOLPHINS AT 1008 BEL AIR DR., LOTS 1, 2, & 3 HIGHLAND
BEACH ISLES; SUBMITTED BY BOCA DOCK & SEAWALL FOR FLAMMIA

It was the CONSENSUS of the panel that a copy of the foregoing Motion
be attached to the permit when it is applied for.
Lee Leffingwell, recently hired as Building Official/Code Enforcement
Officer, was asked to give a brief description of her professional
qualifications and did so.
Preliminary Review for Single Family at 4019 S. Ocean Blvd., Lot 48E.
Submitted by John D. Conway, Architect, for Haronian (Owner).
John Conway respresented the owner and told the members the house would
be two-story, CBS construction, approximately 4800 sq.ft, with a 3-care
garage and an elevator. Members convened to the table to review plans
at which time Mr. Conway answered questions to their satisfaction.
The Building Official advised that should the Board deem appropriate,
the project could be given final approval at this time. The following
MOTION was then made by MR. BELL/MR. MORRILL and received unanimous
approval:
THE PLANNING BOARD GIVES FINAL APPROVAL TO PLANS FOR A
SINGLE FAMILY STRUCTURE AT 4019 S. OCEAN BLVD., LOT 48E;
SUBMITTED BY JOHN D. CONWAY, ARCHITECT, FOR HARONIAN
(OWNER), COMMISSION NO. 0692112 DATED 8/17/92, SHEETS
1, 2, 3, 4, 7 AND 8.
Preliminary Review for Addition to Second Floor Bedroom in Existing
Single Family Structure at 3921 S. Ocean Blvd., Lot 55E. Submitted
by Trottco Enterprises, Inc. for Geller (Owner).
Michael Trotto identified himself as the general contractor for the
project and Mr. Geller's agent. He explained that the project en-
tails an addition to an existing second -story bedroom to accommodate
an exercise room for Mr. Geller. He also noted the addition will ex-
tend eastward of the Coastal Construction Control Line, but is exempt
from approval of Department of Natural Resources because it does not
disturb the existing footprint. Mr. Trotto advised that extension
beyond the CCCL made this a non -conforming structure as regards Town
Code, which necessitated his going before the Board of Adjustment to
seek a variance, which was granted. The Deputy Town Clerk attested the
Board of Adjustment had decided in favor of Mr. Trotto's petition for
variance; however, all papers pertaining to same were filed in Town
Hall and were not available to the members at this time.
The members convened to the table for plan review where Mr. Trotto
answered questions to members' satisfaction. Concluding review, it was
• determined this project could be given final approval and the following
MOTION was made by MR. MORRILL/MR. KANE, meeting with unanimous
approval:

Attention: Highland Beach Planning Board
Re: Wood mooring pilings/ Dolphin pins
HIGHLAND BEACH. FLORIDA 33431
Dear Chairman Robert L. Lowe and Members of the Board,
I am President of the Bel Lido Property Owner's Association. The
Association's boundaries are from the South Side of Highland Beach Drive to the
North Side of Bel Air Drive.
. Many of our members are sailors, and as such, we are vitally concerned
with the introduction of pilings or dolphin pins in the waterways controlled by our
Town. Not only are they an eyesore but since they are unlighted, they are also a
hazard to navigation. The canals interwoven throughout Highland Beach are
difficult enough to maneuver in without further projections in the waterway that are
added by dolphin pin installations.
Another, and more serious aspect is that, although the boat owner who
installs dolphins says "he wants to lay along side the dock", if you are permitting
installation of dolphin pins, it will allow boats to tie-up perpendicular to the dock,
such as you now have on the extreme east end of this same canal Even if the
owner "does lay along side", what prevents future buyers from docking
perpendicular to the dock? If a boater decides to tie up in such as manner he will
project 40-50 feet in to the waterway. Imagine if you allowed both sides of the
canal this privilege,you could possibly make the canal so narrow as to be all but
impassible Since this request is from a 4 or 6 plex condo, I suspect, that if
allowed, many of the other condos in Highland Beach will want the same.
Windage is a great factor in docking and if the canals are honeycombed
with dolphin pins, we are concerned that there will be many accidents resulting in
• injury as well as property damage.

Page Two - Highland Beach Planning Board - Dolphin pin/ mooring pi inas
Prior records of the Planning Board will show the strong objections of prior
requests for installation of dolphin pins and the Planning Boards subsequent
rejection of these requests.
Although a prior committment prevents me from presenting our objections
in person, our Vice President, Mr. Byron McKinley will be in attendance.
Thank you.
Very
