PLANNING AND ZONING BOARD MEETING
November 9, 1978
A regular meeting of the Miami Shores Planning & Zoning Board was
held at 7:30 p.m., November 9, 1978, at the Village Hall, with the following
members present:
Mr. Albert R. Toussaint, Chairman
Mr. Gordon H. Moyer, Jr.
Mr. J. Robert Stobs
Mr. J. S. Palmer
Absent: Mrs. Roberta Johnson
Mr. 0. Sam Ackley, Village Manager and Mr. Frank LuBien, Building
Inspector, were also present.
(1) Minutes of the meetings of October 26, 1978 and November 2,
1978, were approved as written by motion made by Mr. Palmer, seconded by Mr.
Moyer and carried.
(2) Permit was requested by Mr. Myron Partington, 9701 N. Miami
Avenue, to install a metal utility shed in his rear yard. Mr. Partington
stated that the shed proposed was 8 ft. x 10 ft., to be installed on a concrete
slab with approved hurricane tie -down, and that it would not be placed in the
setback area. In the discussion that followed the Board pointed out that there
is no provision in the Zoning Ordinance for metal accessory buildings and until
an ordinance is written on this subject, which the Board is studying, nothing
could be done. Mr. Toussaint relinquished the chair and moved that the Board
deny Mr. Partington's request for permit. The motion was seconded by Mr. Palmer
and passed unanimously.
(3) Mr. Guillermo Pino requested permit to build a residence on
Lot 2, Block 3, Bay Lure Subdivision, 1090 N. E. 92nd Street, with portions of
some walls to be stucco on frame. Mr. Pino argued that his plans met the
building material requirements, that it was an interpretation of the ordinance,
and that other houses of similar construction have been approved previously.
After review and discussion Mr. Stobs moved that Mr. Pino's plans be approved
with the exception of Section C-3 and D-3 on the plans which call for frame
construction, this must be concrete block,and stucco allowed for covering trod trusses.
Motion was seconded by'Mr. "_Moyer and passed 3/1 with Mr.. Toussaint dissenting.
(4) Approval was requested of plans for the expansion of Publix
Market, 9050 Biscayne Blvd., within the existing building and with an additional
storage room on the rear of the building. The plan called for extending the
market on the west in the existing building increasing the market area by about
14,000 sq. ft. and moving the bakery to within the store on the east side.
Parking requirements were discussed but no additonal space could be provided.
The plans were approved by motion made by Mr. Palmer, seconded by Mr. Moyer and
carried.
(5) Approval was requested for permit to build on lots as platted
in Weeks Subdivision. These lots are slightly under the 7500 sq. ft. require-
ment but were approved as platted by the Village Council in 1960 to promote the
