PLANNING AND ZONING BOARD MEETING
February 8, 1979
A regular meeting of the Miami Shores Planning & Zoning Board was
held at 7:30 p.m., February 8, 1979, at the Village Hall, with the following
members present:
Mr. Albert R. Toussaint (arrived late)
Mr. Gordon H. Moyer, Jr.
Mr. J. Robert Stobs
Mrs. Roberta Johnson
Mr. J. S. Palmer
Mr. Frank LuBien, Building Inspector, was also present, as well as
Mr. 0 Sam Ackley, Village Manager, who attended part of the meeting
Mr. Gordon Moyer acted as Chairman in the absence of Mr. Toussaint
at the beginning of the meeting.
(1) Minutes of the last meeting were approved as written by
motion made by Mr. Palmer, seconded by Mrs. Johnson and carried.
(2) A request was made by Mr. Sal Cerami, owner, for permit to
build a new residence at 10225 Biscayne Blvd., with a flat roof section and
stucco on frame at the gables. Mr. LuBien brought this before the Board as
it is not included in the Village building code requiring CBS construction.
After discussion with Mr. Cerami and his contractor, Mr. Candito, Mrs. Johnson
moved that the request be denied. The motion was seconded by Mr. Stobs and
passed unanimously.
(3) A request was made by Mr. Joseph C. Grayson, 15 N. W. 102nd
Street, for permit to build an addition on his home requiring variances for
a flat roof visible from a street side and an addition in excess of the
allowable square footage. Because the addition will enhance and increase
the size of the home which is on a 100 ft. lot, the Board hoped to work out
the plan with the architect and deferred action until February 22, 1979 when
the architect will be present.
(4) Mrs. Gail Ryan and Joe Allen appeared before the Board at the
request of the Village Manager, to present plans for a Renaissance Faire,
scheduled to be held on April 20, 21, & 22nd, 1979, at Barry Field. Mrs.
Ryan reported that the College had given approval for the use of the property
for a fair of renaissance music, drama, fine arts and crafts; that the parking
will be at the Dog Track, off duty police will be hired and insurance taken to
cover all liability. Mr. Ackley asked the Board to consider the use of the
property, which the Board considered as temporary, and Mr. Palmer moved that
the Board recommend approval to the Village Council for this educational non-
profit event, subject to the restrictions imposed by the Village Manager.
The motion was seconded by Mrs. Johnson and carried unanimously.
(5) Informal discussion of fence at the southeast corner of
N. E. 92nd St. and 10th Ave. Mr. LuBien reported that no
permit had been taken out for this fence and the problem of where the front

and side yards are is created on corner properties when the house does not
have the normal facing. It was the consensus of the Board that fencing should
be determined by the way the lot is platted.
(6) Committee reports - Minimum Housing:
Mrs. Johnson reviewed the minimum housing codes of Coral Gables,
Dade County and Lakeland, explaining the differences in the codes and the
sections that would not apply to Miami Shores. The Coral Gables code with
proposed changes for Miami Shores was distributed to the Board for review and
discussion at the next regular meeting.
The meeting adjourned at 9:40 p.m.
Approved:
Chairman
