Chair Miller called the Workshop Meeting to order at 9:30 a.m. Roll Call was taken by
Deputy Town Clerk Oakes.
OLD BUSINESS:
Municipal Taz District
• Chair Miller explained that the Board makes the recommendations to the Town
Commission. The Board will need to make a presentation to the Town Commission
suggesting the options of enforcing beach cleanliness through the code, adding a line item
or creating a municipal tax district to clean the beach. The Board discussed the three
different options and the pros and cons of each.
Deputy Town Clerk Oakes will ask Town Manager Dale Sugerman the following
questions:
1. Does the Town mandate whether or not condominiums need to clean the beaches
and mangroves?
2. How many parcels are in the Town?
Monofilament Program [Board Member Knight]
This item was tabled to the next meeting.
No Wake Zone [Board Member Svenstrup]
Board Member Svenstrup reported that she attended the Planning Board Meeting on May
21, 2009, in which the Chairman gave his report regarding No Wake Zones. Chairman
Stern stated that he would be in contact with Mrs. Svenstrup, but she has not heard from
him. Planning Board Member Joseph Yucht would like to place a height restriction for
the wakes.
• The board discussed tabling this item until the fall, but instead they decided to start
preparing the petitions.
