December 4, 1951
A regular meeting of the Village Council of Miami Shores Village,
Florida, was held at 7:30 o'clock P. M. , December 4, 1951, at the Village Hall
with the following Councilmen present:
Mayor M. E. Reynolds
George A. Frix

William E. Carpenter
S. D. Phillips, Jr.
Absent: None
Mr. Nadeau attended in the absence of Mr. Anderson, Village
Attorney.
The minutes of the last meeting were read and approved by motion
duly made and passed.
The first business of the evening concerned the passage of a
new resolution to effect revocation of the plat on the Burke property. A resolu-
tion had been passed previously for this purpose but because of a corrected
description of the streets involved, a new resolution was required and by
motion made by Mr. Franco, seconded by Mr. Frix, RESOLUTION NO. 322
was unanimously passed and adopted.
In regard to the traffic situation in the Village, discussion arose
concerning the advisability of buying an electric speed meter which, the Chief
of Police stated, would cost around $400. 00. Approval was given for the
purchase of this machine by motion made by Mr. Carpenter, seconded by
Mr. Frix and passed unanimously.

The next item of business was a review of Mr. Paisley's request
for permission to make two building sites by combining a 75 ft. lot and a 50 ft.
lot, as previously discussed. Mrs. J. O. Rhodes of 10550 N. E. 2nd Place
was present at the meeting and represented the neighboring property owners
who object to this proposal. Mrs. Rhodes pointed out how this would crowd
the yards and homes already built. Mayor Reynolds explained that before the
Council takes any action on this zoning variation, everyone in that block will
be notified if they wish to appear. In addition, it was suggested that the owners
dgpth
of the surrounding property having lots of only 100 ft,/ might be willing to
purchase part of the 50 ft. lot to add to the depth of their yards.
Chief Senneff thanked the Council for the treatment they afforded
him while he was sick.
Mr. Franco asked about the Olender case which, it was reported,
was not on the agenda as the Advisory Board had not had a meeting as yet and
therefore no report was available.
Mr. McCall spoke briefly on the meeting in Orlando with particular
regard to Social Security. The Council asked for a report at the next meeting.
Mr. Phillips pointed out the zoning violation that is being maintained
by the Miami Shores Lodge and the unfavorable publicity in that it is being
advertised as a motel. He also called attention to the lights that are used on
the Halliwell Tourist Court. It was requested that a report be made on these
two places of business.
