(1) At the last Planning Board meeting consideration was given
to a sign erected without permit at the Matchbox novelty shop, 8823 Biscayne
Blvd. Action was deferred so that the Board would have an opportunity to
look at it. After some discussion Mr. McIntosh moved that the party that
has been called for non-conformance is to re -submit a sign to this Board for
approval. Motion was seconded by Mr. Moyer. The petitioner asked if he
would be permitted to submit the drawing of the same sign. The motion was
then withdrawn and Mr. McIntosh moved that this sign be disapproved and
that necessary action be taken by the Building Department to follow up with
the non-conformance of a sign as far as our Village ordinances go. Motion
was seconded by Mr. Moyer and passed unanimously.
(2) Plans were presented for a residence to be built for Dr.
J. H. Soutar on Lots A & B, Watersedge Subdivision, at N. Bayshore Drive
and 91st Terrace. The Building Inspector brought these plans before the
Board because of some unusual features. After a review of the plans Mr.
Baden moved that the plans as submitted be approved with the provision that
the open balcony be allowed to project only 36 inches into the side setback.
Motion was seconded by Mr. McIntosh and passed unanimously.
(3) Plans were presented for an addition to the Peoples Bank
2/8/68
-2-
at N. E. 95th Street and 2nd Avenue. Mr. Roland Stafford, representing
the bank, explained that this will add about one fourth more floor space
by extending the second story which will be used for work area only. Mr.
Stafford also pointed out that they are changing the flow of traffic for the
drive-in tellers so that the entrance will be on 94th Street with exits on
95th St. Mr. McIntosh moved that the plan be approved as submitted with
the proper traffic control. Motion was seconded by Mr. Baden and passed
unanimously.
(4) Mr. Joe Arnold of Tropical Chevrolet, requested permit
to pave Lots 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, Block 21, for the parking of new cars.
Mr. McIntosh moved that they present a bonafide paving plan, drainage
plan and landscaping plan with fence and hedge, before the Board considers
this request. Motion was seconded by Mr. Moyer and passed unanimously.
(5) Messrs. Weber and DeMeo returned before the Planning
Board at the suggestion of the Council for reconsideration of their "town
house" design for. Blocks 19 and 20, El Portal Sub. They stated that they
would build these units under a unity of title as an apartment building. The
Board felt it could not take action on town houses regardless of how they
may be built or what they may be called. Mr. Moyer moved that the Board
recommend to the Council that these two blocks 19 and 20, 1F1 Portal Sub.
be considered by the Council for re -zoning to allow town houses, as per
the recommendation of November 30th and per a previous recommendation
of this Board made in October. Motion was seconded by Mr. Baden and
passed unanimously.
