1993.08.11_PB_Minutes_RegularTOWN OF HIGHLAND BEACH • PLANNING BOARD PUBLIC HEARING MINUTES Wednesday, August 11, 1993 9:30 A.M. Acting Chairman James F. Morrill called the Public Hearing to order in Commission Chambers at 9:30 A.M., noting its purpose was to examine an application, receive public comments, and make a recommendation to the Town Commission regarding a Special Exception request submitted by Delray Marine for Aldo Ruscito (owner) relative to the installation of two davits (boat lifting device) at 4229 Intracoastal Drive [Town Code of Ordinances Chapter 30, Section 5.2(D)(2) and Section 10 (A), (B) and (C)]. Deputy Town Clerk Doris Trinley called the roll. Others present were Members Frank L. Colarullo, William Maltz and Felix R. Goldenson. Chairman Robert L. Lowe and Member Leonard D. Bell were absent. Also present were Town Attorney Thomas E. Sliney, Building Official Lee Leffingwell and members of the general public. When Mr Morrill asked for a representative of the project to address the Board, it was advised that Mr. Howard Montgomery of Delray Marine had been delayed. Accordingly, Mr. Morrill recessed the Public Hearing at 9:35 A.M., without objection, to await Mr. Montgomery's arrival. Mr. Morrill reconvened the Public Hearing at 9:40 A.M. at which time Mr. Montgomery produced required receipts from certified mailings to residents within 1000 feet of the property. He then explained the type of device proposed for installation, saying the davits would be mounted directly on the seawall and would accommodate a 18-20' boat. For the record, Ms. Leffingwell noted that Mr. Ruscito's lot had less than 50' water frontage, which had placed the proposal in the Special Exception category according to Code. Under the Public Comments portion of the meeting, Town Commissioner John F. Rand of 4211 Intracoastal Drive and Leon Canova of 4216 Intra- coastal Drive spoke in favor of the Special Exception being recom- mended to the Town Commission. These were the only residents to ad- dress the Board. During subsequent ,discussion, Town Attorney Sliney referred to the ap- plicable Codes, reading pertinent portions into the record. He reminded the members that only the Town Commission could approve or disapprove the Special Exception and then only after holding their own Public Hearing on the matter; today the Board could only transmit its recommendation to the Commission.
