MIAMI SHORES VILLAGE
PLANNING AND ZONING BOARD MEETING
June 24, 1976
A regular meeting of the Miami Shores Village Planning and
Zoning Board was held at 7:30 p.m. , June 24, 1976, at the Village Hall, with
the following members present:
Mr. James O. Denham, Chairman
Mr. Gordon H. Moyer, Jr.
Mr. Kenneth R. Phoenix
Mr. Albert R. Toussaint
Absent: Mr. Robert Stobs, II
Mr. William R. Bradford, Building and Zoning Director, was also
present.
Minutes of the last regular meeting were approved as written by
motion made by Mr. Toussaint, seconded by Mr. Moyer and carried.
(1) Request was made for approval of preliminary plans of
Dr. and Mrs. Harold C. Spear, for a new residence to be constructed on Lots
1 and 2, Block 4, Bay Lure Subdivision (93rd Street on the Bay). The plans
were brought before the Board for approval of a contemporary design. Repre-
sentatives of the architectural firm of Joseph Farcus of Miami Beach, were
present to explain the plan and how the owners will develop the property. Some
of the Board members argued that the design of architecture is not in harmony
with the existing structures in the area. The Board took the plan under advise-
ment and asked that the architects make a further presentation with a model,
sketches, etc. to better reveal the character of the residence.
(2) Request was made by Militana, Militana & Militana, 8801
Biscayne Blvd. , for approval of a free-standing sign at the above address.
The plan submitted was for the sign as is presently erected. Concerning the
traffic hazard previously discussed, Mr. John Militana reported that he had
removed two of the trees in the front of his property to alleviate restricted
visibility along Biscayne Blvd. Relocation of parking areas was discussed in
conjunction with the visibility problem. Mr. Phoenix moved that the paved
area be striped on the east side of the parking area and that the sign be raised
a minumum of 7 ft. clear underneath, subject to F. P. L. restrictions, with
• submittal of structural plans of the sign to the Building Department. The
motion was seconded by Mr. Toussaint and passed unanimously.
