MINUTES OF TOWN COMMISSION
SPECIAL MEETING
Fridav, September 6, 1996 4.00 P M
Mayor Voress called the Special Meeting to order at 4:00 P.M. in
Commission Chambers.
Deputy Town Clerk Jane Dillon called the roll. The Mayor, and
Commissioners Arthur Eypel, David Augenstein and Thomas J. Reid
were present. Vice-Mayor John F. Rand was absent.
Town Attorney Thomas E. Sliney and Town Manager Mary Ann Mariano
were also present, as were members of the general public.
This meeting was called to hear the following Resolution:
A RESOLUTION OF THE TOWN COMMISSION OF THE TOWN OF
HIGHLAND BEACH, FLORIDA, AUTHORIZING THE CREATION OF THE
TOWN OF HIGHLAND BEACH MUNICIPAL BUILDING AUTHORITY,
INC., AND APPROVING THE ARTICLES OF INCORPORATION AND THE
BY-LAWS OF THE TOWN OF HIGHLAND BEACH MUNICIPAL BUILDING
• AUTHORITY.
Mayor Voress presented Attorney Schoech's letter which addressed
the legal liabilities of the Town Commission of Highland Beach.
The Mayor then asked if Ms . Mariano was investigating the insurance
aspects of the Municipial Building Authority.
Ms. Mariano stated that several options were being looked at, one
being a separate policy for directors and officers, or the
Municipal Building Corporation becoming an additional insured on
the Town's present policy. She stated there was not a concern in
obtaining insurance, just a matter of deciding how to write it.
Mayor Voress asked Attorney Sliney to reply to Attorney Schoech,
that his letter was satisfactory and was accepted by the Town
Commission.
The subject document which was prepared by Charles F. Schoech of
Caldwell & Pacetti Law Offices, was open for discussion with
comments and changes being noted. During discussion, it was noted
that the Secretary/Treasurer need not be a Director of the
Authority. It was the consensus of the Town Commission to add the
name of Mary Ann Mariano as Secretary/Treasurer to the document as
the Town Manager would be providing all the administrative require-
ments to the Authority. Attorney Sliney will submit the changes to
Mr. Schoech for revision, and request it be back to the Commission
• by the 13th of September, after which it will be executed by all
Town Commission members.
