HISTORIC PRESERVATION BOARD

Hall, with the following members present:
Marty Stofik, Chairman
C. Lawton McCall

• Victor D. Griffith
Also Present: Leslie R.Forney, Village Manager
(for a portion of meeting)
2) MINUTES:
Minutes of the meeting of September 1, 1982 were approved. as
written by motion made by Mr. Dixon, seconded by Mr. Griffith and
carried unanimously.
Mr. Forney advised the Board a letter was received from the
State Historic Preservation Officer. State Officials sent our
Ordinance on to Federal Agency in Atlanta with the recommendation
that it be rejected for certification; the primary reason is the
owner -consent portion as it applies to districts, not as it applies
to the individual only. The State feels it will be more in harmony
with Federal law if residents of a district, or a group of selected
individuals of a district (i.e. a plurality) is required for•consent.
No action will be taken by the Village until the Ordinance
goes to the Federal Government and comes back to us. Mr. Forney
advised that the. Assistant County Attorney and Metro's Boque Wallen
called relativeto the existing problem relative to owner -consent
at Miami Beach and inquired if Miami Shores would change our Ordinance.
Mr.`Forney.would not agree to a change. He noted there is a different
-feeling in Miami Shores. on Preservation than transitory Miami Beach.
He also noted the question of whether we are going to sit back and
allow the County to dictate our Ordinance.
It was necessary for the Village Manager to leave at.this time
to attend a meeting concurrent with the Preservation Board.
