Minutes of Meeting of Town Commission
WORKSHOP MEETING TO REVIEW ZONING REVISIONS
Tuesdav. June 19, 1984 2:00 P.M.
A Workshop Meeting to review the proposed zoning revisions was called
to order by Mayor Louis Y. Horton at 2:00 p.m. in the Town Commission
Chambers of Highland Beach Town Hall. Also in attendance were Vice
Mayor Blosser, Commissioners John J. Basso, William E. Paul and Betty
Jean Stewart.
Also present were Town Attorney David Friedman;Gee and Jenson
representative Ron Hoggard; Town Manager Elaine W. Roberts; Building
Official Bruce Sutherland; Town Clerk Mary Ann Whaley; citizens and the
general public.
The Town Commission reviewed the recommendations as submitted in a
letter from Town Attorney Thomas E. Sliney dated June 18, 1984, a copy
of which letter is attached and made a part of these minutes. It was
the consensus of the Town Commission that the recommendations offered
by the Town Attorney be approved.
• Also discussed was a recommendation of the Building Official regarding
the provision of visibility triangles. It was the recommendation of
the Building Official that rather than providing for the visibility
triangles as presently stated in the zoning ordinance i.e. requiring
that no hedge or wall be higher than 2.5 feet, that a 5 foot hedge or
wall be allowed as long as it is placed at least 5 feet back from the
property line. It was the consensus of the Town Commission that the
Building Official's recommendation could be incorporated into the
present requirements and therefore Mr. Hoggard was requested to draw up
language to provide same.
The Town Manager was directed to draw up a proposed schedule in order
to accomodate the passage of the Zoning Ordinance by the September 4,
1984 Regular Meeting.
This meeting was recessed at 3:10 p.m. in order to hold a Special
Meeting.
Upon re-convening the Workshop Meeting, discussion was held regarding
the action taken in the Special Meeting involving the purchase of a new
Ford Escort automobile for the Building Department. The Town Manager
was directed to administratively solicit proposals from additional Ford
Dealers prior to purchasing the approved automobile.
There being no further business to come before the Town Commission at
this time, the meeting was adjourned at 5:20 p.m.
