Planning Board minutes: - Mrs. James Kayler of the AA Liquor
Store and the manager for the Kwik Chek building were present to petition the
Council for a temporary liquor store sign to be erected near the edge of
Biscayne Blvd. , which was denied by the Planning Board. After some discussion,
Mr. Rudnick moved that a temporary sign be permitted for a new business
coming into the Kwik Chek shopping plaza on Biscayne Blvd. , not to exceed
90 days; size of sign not to exceed 12 sq. ft. in area and approved by the Planning
Board and Council, upon the condition that the tenant will remove the sign at the
end of 90 days and if it is not removed the Village will do so. Motion was seconded
by Mr. Saxon and passed unanimously.
Mrs. Kayler also asked for a change on installation of the permanent
sign. However, after discussion Mr. Walker moved that the Council sustain the
1/15/63 G
-t-
action of the Planning Board in regard to the permanent sign on the canopy of
the liquor store. Motion was seconded by Mr. Saxon and passed unanimously.
Mrs. Howard Lang, Housing Chairman for the participants to the
Jr. Orange Bowl Tennis Tournament, presented a letter to the Council in
appreciation for the assistance and cooperation given to this program by the
Village officials and employees. Mayor Miller, on behalf of the Council,
expressed gratitude to Mrs. Lang for the way she handled the housing and
entertainment of these participants and felt it was a great service not only to
Miami Shores but to our whole country.
At the last Planning Board meeting approval was recommended for
permit to build on Lot 2, Golden Gate Park Subdivision (a 50 ft. lot) by Mr.
Dan Schmidt. Mr. Rudnick pointed out that the owner of this property had had
three lots and sold the one on the west side of his home and is now selling the
one on the east side thereby creating three homes on 50 ft. lots. However,
he did add that these new homes will improve the neighborhood. Mr. Saxon
moved that the action of the Planning Board be upheld and a permit granted,
it having been made to appear to the Council that it is desirable that this permit
be granted in view of the present condition of the property.. Motion was seconded
by Mr. Walter and passed unanimously.
The Village Manager asked for approval of the construction of a
louvered fence on two sides of the parking lot on 98th Street west of N. E. 2nd
Avenue, at a cost of $740.00. Mr. Walker moved that the Council approve the recom-
mendation of the Village Manager on this item. Motion was seconded by Mr. Rudnick
1/15/63
and passed unanimously.
The Village Manager also requested approval to put a similar fence
on the lot facing 96th Street just west of 2nd Avenue and also to fence two
sides of the parking lot on 97th Street. Mr. Rudnick moved that the additional
fences be erected as proposed by the Village Manager, cost not to exceed
$1500. 00. Motion was seconded by Mr. Walker and passed unanimously.
Mr. Roy Abagnale, newly elected President of the Chamber of Commerce,
invited the Council and Village Manager to attend the first meeting of the new
officers of the Chamber at a luncheon to be held Friday at the Country Club,
as guests of the Chamber.
Mr. Rudnick reported that the exit to the Columbia Federal parking
lot is hazardous because of the Legion war memorial in the parkway of 96th
Street and wanted to know if the monument could be moved about 25 ft. to the
east. The Village Manager stated that this had been discussed before and that
he didn't believe the memorial could be moved but it will be looked into.
Dr. Keiser asked if the Chamber could put trash receptacles on the
corners in the business district. The Village Manager stated that the Planning
Board had previously rejected a similar proposal by the Civitan Club.
The meeting adjourned at 5:10 P.M. ,
