PLANNING AND ZONING BOARD MEETING
April 10, 1969
A regular meeting of the Miami Shores Planning and Zoning Board
was held at 7:30 P. M. , April 10, 1969, at the Village Hall, with the follow-
ing members present:
Chairman Donald W. Hoefle
Mr. Gordon H. Moyer, Jr.
Mr. Thomas B. Baden
Mr. Donald W. McIntosh
Mr. Irving E. Horsey
Mr. William R. Bradford, Building and Zoning Director, was also
present.
Minutes of the last meeting of March 27, 1969, were approved as
written by motion made by Mr. Baden, seconded by Mr. Moyer and carried.
(1) A request was made at the last meeting by Electro Neon
Sign Company to install illuminated wall signs on the back of the Publix
and Eckerd Drug stores, which the Board took under advisement pending
an inspection of the area. After some discussion Mr. Moyer moved that
the Board recommend to the Council that the request for 2 ft. signs be
granted providing the signs meet all standards of our building code, with no
flashing lights, for the reason that the signs will face a business zone on
the south and should in no way affect residential areas. Motion was seconded
by Mr. Baden and passed 4/1 with Mr. McIntosh dissenting. Mr. McIntosh
recommended that the sign regulations be reviewed by the Council and that
those signs that are non -conforming should be abolished.
(2) A request was made by Tropical Chevrolet to add to their
existing parts building. This addition would connect the service building
with the parts building. In discussing the improvements on this property
Mr. Moyer criticized the appearance of the vents on the top of one of the
present buildings and felt that the Board should request that they be re -designed
or removed. Mr. McIntosh moved recommendation for approval of the
new building subject to receipt of a letter from the F. E. C. Railroad allow-
ing them to drain onto their property or provide adequate drainage on the
Chevrglreotpeant recommending a study of the existing ventilating system as
to appearance from the west. Motion was seconded by Mr. Baden and
passed by four affirmative votes with Mr. Horsey abstaining as he is pre-
paring these plans.
