NEW BUSINESS
Elevator Addition to Existing Single Family Residence at 2342 S . Ocean
Blvd . , Lot 137W , #2 . Submitted by Joseph Rudnick (Owner) .
Mr . Rudnick addressed the Board and explained plans called for the
elevator to be installed behind a privacy wall on the outside of the
residence , with virtually no change to the outward appearance of the
house , including the roof line ; access would be from inside the house
only . He noted the shaft would be 4 ' wide , extending 5 ' toward the
privacy wall . Since landscaping would have to be moved to accommodate
the installation , and then re- planted , Mr . Rudnick said he would do
whatever necessary in this regard to ensure the Board ' s satisfaction
with the results .
Ms . Leffingwell said she had treated the application as an accessory
to a main structure and , as such , the project met all Code require-
ments .
Concluding review, MR . ARENELLA/MR. BEHRMAN made the following MOTION :
THE COMMUNITY APPEARANCE BOARD GIVES FINAL APPROVAL TO
PLANS FOR THE ADDITION OF AN ELEVATOR TO EXISTING SINGLE
"'esFAMILY RESIDENCE AT 2342 S . OCEAN BLVD . , LOT 137W #2 ,

unlocking the gates at the appropriate times . Mr . Fanning ' s presen-
tation included a copy of project approval letter from Chief Herman

For the record , Ms . Leffingwell advised that Doug Kelly of the

requested a copy of the Town ' s Xeriscape Code . Mr . Kelly said he had
seen Highland Beach mentioned in an issue of Quality Cities as being
one of the few municipalities in the State to have such an ordinance
in place and his agency planned to use it as a model for their own
Code .
GREENING COMMITTEE
The members discussed various topics relating to the work of the Com-
mittee , including replacement of four ( 4 ) trees on the northeast end
of Town , improved plaque material for outdoor use , and the possibility
of putting a tree maintenance program in place with an outside con-
tractor to ensure proper trimming and fertilizing .
Lengthy discussion took place regarding the intent , purpose and goals
of the Committee and what projects should be considered regarding ex-
penditure of its funds . It was the consensus to table such discussion
at this time and continue at a later date to determine what , if any ,
le, action should be taken by the members .

4801 South Ocean BL
Highland Beach, FL 33487 '
Dear Mr. Fanning:
As per your request, the gate access points for the Boca Highland
Center were evaluated for fire department access. Your request to
close the North gate after hours is acceptable to Fire-Rescue. The
existing gate on the South end provides adequate access. The
availability of the two 24 hour security guards also allows for the
North gate to be opened in an emergency.
I would like to thank you for your forethought in contacting Fire-
Rescue prior to the change. If you need further information, please
contact me at (407) 278-9970.
Regards,
Kevin S. Shaw
