Secretary; A: J. Kiefer; A. Kahler; and
Albert Schiff (First Alternate).
Absent: W. J. Wernecke, Vice Chairman (resigned).
Minutes of the July 6, 1981 quarterly workshop meeting were approved.
The Chairman reported the resignation of Mr. Wernecke, who desired
more activity than this board has been experiencing recently, and who
was appointed to another Highland Beach board where he,felt he would
have increased usefulness.
The board studied the resumes of Mr. Schiff and of Benjamin E. Winston,
who applied for consideration as an alternate, and recommended that
Mr. Schiff be appointed as a regular member and Mr. Winston, who was
present for the meeting, be named first alternate. (The Town
Commission accepted the recommendations and -made the appointments
at its monthly regular meeting on Nov. 3, 1981.)
The board studied in detail the summary sheet tabulations of results
• of this year's Highland Beach Community Survey, with particular emphasis
on aspects that would be pertinent to applications that were of the
kind that the board customarily receives. These included such topics
as growth control, relative adequacy of present commercial guest facilities
within Highland Beach, adequacy of restrictive controls regarding land
development,.and protection of the natural environment adjacent to the
ocean and the Intracoastal Waterway.
The board also received and reviewed copies of the Building Official's
newest memorandum, dated Oct. 13, 1981, on "Status of Building Development
in the Town."
Mayor Horton, who had agreed to be present to bring the board up to date
on various developments within the town, commented and answered various
questions relating to the survey, construction developments, and a number
of other matters that are important in the town's current activities and
planning, including the Town Hall addition and Library area.
The meeting was adjourned at approximately 9:10 p.m.

Elaine:
Although the tape of the Board of Ad-
Justment's Oct. 19 meeting was run by
Mayor Horton, and has been available
to review and for minutes, I have
somewhat reluctantly concluded that
the matter of minutes has been over-
looked and that board members would
not be given their honorariums unless
someone produced some minutes. Our
Secretary, Col. Scofield, agreed to
continue that post only with the under-
standing that he would not have such
duties.
Accordingly, since they haven't been
done at your office yet, I wrote
these today to fill the gap. The
adjournment time of "approximately 9:10
p.m." is what it is described as, an
approximatrion, inasmuch as I did not
record it.
Thanks.
