BYRD, DEVITT, OTTO & McKEY. P -L PLANNING BOARD - MEETING 25 Jan 74 Present: Larry Ball John Boardman Evans Clements Bill Mayer Also attending: Bob Worthing Norman Otto Earl Harvel Items discussed: 1. A proposal for the Town to' purchase the present water supply system from the Gulf Stream Golf Club. Mr. Harvel reported that the last report of record on condition of the pumping equipment is nine years old. Although there are two systems, one for the Town supply and one for the golf course, there is only one auxiliary (diesel) pump for emergency use. Also, the 12 inch line from the eastern shore of the Intracoastal to the elevated water tank is an old cast iron pipe in very bad condition. It has required frequent and rather expensive repairs in recent years. Situation: An engineering; survey is needed to reveal the condition of the pumping,equipment and to recommend the type of line (cast iron, transite, or other) to replace the line from the intracoastal to the tank. In addition the following questions should be answered: a) Is the auxiliary pump a part of the system offered to the Town? b) Who will service and operate the system including both the electric and diesel pumps? . c) Will the State Board of Health require the Town to have an operator with license? Recommendation: Further investigation. 2. Abandonment of a portion of Pelican Lane. Norman Otto, Att'y., exhibited drawings showing the area involved as platted in 1921. There has never been a road on this portion of Pelican Lane which is now actually a flower garden. The petitioner owns all the surrounding property. Recommendation: Approve abondonment (unanimous). 3. Abandonment of the "old" entrance to Place Au Soleil when the "new" entrance is in service. There was no adverse discussion. Recommendation: Approve abandonment (unanimous). 4. Proposal to change the minimum square footage re- quirements for dwellings from 1200 square feet to 2000 square feet. It was brought out that under the present zoning ordinance a speculative house with a 20 foot by 20 foot Garage (attached) need have only 800 square feet of living space to qualify. This could in- vite a serious degradadation of quality in some of the few areas remaining "undeveloped." Recommendation: That such a change be made in the Town zoning ordinance and that it include not only single family dwellings but also apartments, condominiums, and co- operative apartments;-i.e. all dwelling places. The restriction should refer to living space. 5. A proposal to establish a "Comprehensive Plan" for further development of Gulf Stream to be approved by the residents of Gulf Stream to preclude the likelihood of having zoning variances approved by a judicial procedure without proper recognition of the interests of the residents. Recommendation: That this proposal be given serious con- sideration by the Town Council and by Town Attorney. (unanimous) 6. A proposal to limit the hours during which noisey machinery may be operated within the Town. Mr. Worthing offered a copy of such an ordinance which is now operative in Delray Beach; Their number 17 -20 (10). Recommendations That such an ordinance be adopted by the Town of Gulf Stream (limiting such noises to 8:00 am to 5:00 pm, weekdays, except as provided in cases of emergency). (unanimous) Respectfully, 4 CII L. M. Ball Chairman TOWN OF GULF STREAM PALM BEACH COUNTY, FLORIDA January 25, 1974. COMMISSIONERS MAIL ADDRESS William F.
