.the sales trailer would be placed on site lot 3 (Town lot
136W) and construction would begin immediately on a single
family residence on site lot 5 (Town lot 134W... the next
item on today's agenda).
Mr. Ince noted that the the owner of one of the existing residences,
situated on the lot next to which the trailer would be placed, had no
objection its placement. He also assured the panel that adequate
parking had been planned, which met Code standards.
Because Mr. Ince had no building permit for lot 136W, substantial
discussion took place regarding Section 5.6 of Chapter 30 (Zoning),
part of which states that a building permit must be in place before a
sales trailer can be approved. Attorney Sliney advised he had
previously talked to the Building Official regarding interpretation of
this Section and it was concluded the Section would not be applicable
to single family building lots as there would be no room to construct
the residence with a trailer on the lot; rather it would apply to large
projects. Mr. Sliney also pointed out that the language of the Section
did not indicate that a building permit had to be "on the same lot" as
a sales trailer. It was further noted that the entire site had been
planned for several estate residences and Mr. Ince held two (2)
• building permits for certain portions of the site at this time.
After some further discussion and review, Mr. Kane/Mr. Keller made the
following MOTION, which received unanimous favorable vote:
THE PLANNING BOARD GIVES FINAL APPROVAL FOR SALES TRAILER
AT 2348 S. OCEAN BLVD., LOT 136W; SITE PLAN DATED 1/27/92,
AS SUBMITTED BY PETER INCE FOR INCE & HERTEL.

Peter Ince spoke on behalf of the project, which was noted in the pre-
vious agenda item, saying it would be a two-story residence of approxi-
mately 6500 sq.ft. and include an elevator.
After convening at the table for discussion and review, during which it
was noted that should the members so decide, final approval could be
given at this time, Mr. Maltz/Mr. Kane made the following MOTION:

Mr. Heithaus also advised the members of a change in Southern Standard
Building Code regulations regarding swimming pools. It was the Board's
consensus that each member receive a copy of the actual Code to review
before discussion was entered into regarding any recommendation to
changes in Town Code.
Answering Mr. Kane, the Building Official advised that a request for
installation of two (2) dolphins at 1015 Bel Air Dr, which had been
discussed and tabled pending receipt of pertinent information at the
December 11, 1991 meeting, was no longer an active issue since the re-
quired information had not been received.
Mr. Bell inquired about project plans for Lot 90E and Mr. Heithaus ad-
vised the developer does have new design plans, which will first neces-
sitate his application for variance to the Board of Adjustment.
In noting the next Regular Meeting date to be April 8, it was ascer-
tained that several members would be unavailable at that time; there-
fore, it was the consensus of the members to switch the meeting date to
the following Wednesday, April 15, if Commission Chambers were availa-
ble. The Chairman asked that members be so advised.
There being no further business to come before the Board, the meeting
was adjourned upon MOTION by Mr. Kane/Mr. Morrill at 10:40 A.M.
