MINUTES: Special Meetings of the Town Commission - February 14, 1974
The Special Meeting requested by Mayor Horton, Vice Mayor Dent, and
Commissioner Gilday to reconsider and/or take any necessary action
regarding the request of Oliver-Hoffmann Corporation to have a permit
issued for sales office on Lot No. 56, was called to order by Mayor
Horton at 4:17 P.M.
Present were: Mayor Horton, Vice Mayor Dent, and Commissioners
Gilday, Joy and Mumford.
The Commission. reviewed and discussed the motion (matter be tabled)
which was passed at the Regular Meeting of February 6, 1974.
Mayor Horton read into the record, the attached letter dated February
12, from the petitioners' attorney, Thomas E. Byrd.
A lenc~hty discussion followed and the Commission listened to the
view of the attorney and the offer to give bond assurance, etc.
Vice Mayor Dent requested that a permit be issued under the provisions
for temporary structures, to be valid for six months and that the
Company furnish bond or other assurances to remove the trailer if the
project should not be completed.
• Due to the lack of a motion to reconsider the motion now on record,
the foregoing was not in order for consideration. It was the consensus
of the majority of the Commission that since the RPUD plans were,
at the direction of the Planning Board, to be subject to a Land
Planner's review (Mr. Beasley) and to a Public Hearing, it was not
feasible to issue the permit as requested. It was the opinion of
the majority of the Commission that the offer of bond assurances
were not sufficient to reconcile the views of residents.
Commissioner Joy made a motion that: the application, for a permit
for this project for a temporary structure, which is proposed for
Lot No. 56 be denied until such future time that the project has
received the approval of all cognizant Committees; i.e., Planning
Board and Community Appearance Board; that no other objections exist
for the issuance of the permit. Commissioner Gilday seconded the
motion and a roll call vote was taken. The record will show the
votes cast were: Commissioner Joy, aye; Vice Mayor Dent, nay;
Commissioner Mumford, aye; Commissioner Gilday, aye; and the Mayor
voted nay.
At approximately 5:30 P.M., the purpose for this meeting was concluded
and the second meeting which had been called to begin at 4:30 P.M.,
began. The purposes and by whom this meeting was called are shown in
the notice dated February 11, 1974, copy attached.
