PLANNING AND ZONING BOARD MEETING
October 9, 1980
A regular meeting of the Miami Shores Planning & Zoning Board was
held at 7:30 p.m., October 9, 1980, at the Village Hall, with the following
members present:
Mr. J. Robert Stobs, Chairman
Mr. Albert Toussaint
Mrs. Robert Johnson
Mr. J. S. Palmer
Prior to seating of the new Board, minutes of the meeting of
September 25, 1980, were approved as written by motion made by Mr. Palmer,
seconded by Mr. Toussaint and passed. Mr. Toussaint then left the meeting
and the following new Board members were introduced:
Mr. Kevin P. O'Connor
Mr. Kenneth Cutchens
Mr. Frank LUBien, Public Works Director, was also present.
(1) Request by Dr. Bruce Majilton, 453 N. E. 99th St. to
convert a detached garage into a game room with bath.
At the first meeting that this was presented no action was
taken on approval as a result of a tie vote, and it was deferred until this
meeting in anticipation of a full Board being present. The plans for
making the garage into a recreation room were reviewed in light of the zoning
regulations dealing with use of accessory buildings. Mrs. Johnson made two
motions for approval without the shower, which failed to receive a second.
Mr. Stobs relinquished the chair and moved that the request for the bathroom
portion of the addition be denied. The motion was seconded by Mr. O'Connor
and passed 4/1 with Mrs. Johnson dissenting.
(2) Request for approval of radio transmitter antenna
by the owner of the tower, Roger Pollock, 428 N. E.
91st St.
This was brought before the Board following complaints
received on the height and size of the radio tower. A petition was pre-
sented to the Board signed by 22 neighbors objecting to the tower. Sub-
sequent to receipt of the petition a letter was received from the owner
of the building stating that the tower would be removed by the weekend of
Oct. 11-12, which eliminated action by the Board.
(3)
Request for variance on setback in converting a garage
at 900 N. E. 97th St.
This was brought before the Board because a baywindow
planned for the converted garage protruded into the rear setback, In

reviewing the plot plan for this irregularly shaped lot, it was noted that
special setbacks had been provided. Discussion followed as to whether this
made the house non -conforming or merely the setbacks. Action was delayed
until the next meeting pending advice from the Village Attorney.
The meeting was adjourned at 8:25 p.m.
