PLANNING AND ZONING BOARD MEETING
March 27, 1980
A regular meeting of the Miami Shores Planning & Zoning Board was
held at 7:30 p.m., March27, 1980, at the Village Hall, with the following
members present:
Mr. J. Robert Stobs, Chairman
Mr. Gordon H. Moyer, Jr.
Mrs. Roberta Johnson
Mr. J. S. Palmer
Absent: Mr. Albert R. Toussaint
Mr. Frank LuBien, Public Works Director, was also present.
(1) Minutes of the meeting of March 13, 1980, were approved as
written by motion made by Mr. Palmer, seconded by Mr. Moyer and passed
unanimously.
(2) A request was made for approval of an 8 ft. wall to be
constructed in front of the home of Mr. James W. Walker,
68 N. W. 95th St.
Mr. Walker's request was for a wooden fence to be constructed
in front of his home for a shield against traffic and noise. Mr. Walker was
advised that neither the height nor the material for the fence was permitted
in the zoning regulations. He asked that it be considered as a variance.
The Board explained that the only basis for a variance was hardship, which was
not established. Mrs. Johnson moved that the request be denied because it does
not conform to the ordinance. The motion was seconded by Mr. Moyer and passed
unanimously. Mr. Walker stated he would appeal this decision.
(3) Request for permit to construct a flat roof screen
porch and utility room at 9350 N. E. 9th Avenue, by
Mr. and Mrs. Larry Hull.
Plans were submitted by Mr. Hull for a pitched and flat roof
addition which Mr. Hull stated was the most practical way to build the flat
roof area over the porch and utility room, which is within the 15% allowance.
Mrs. Johnson moved that the request be approved, as meeting Ordinance No. 403-78.
The motion was seconded by Mr. Palmer and passed unanimously.
(4) Request for approval of tentative replat of Lots 11 thru 19,
Block 28.
Mr. D. W. McIntosh presented a proposed replat of Lots 11
thru 19, Block 28, as requested by the Peoples Bank, to move part of the
north/south alley further east, for the purpose of constructing additional
drive-in windows where the alley now exists. Because of questions concerning
zoning changes Mr. McIntosh asked the Board to take it under advisement and
discuss it with the Village Attorney. Mr. Palmer moved that it be referred to
the Village Attorney. The motion was seconded by Mrs. Johnson and passed
unanimously.
