August 31, 1968. On motion of Mr. Beatty, seconded by mr. Printup, it was unanim-
ously voted that Fireman Fitzgerald's service with the Village be terminated.
Mr. Beatty explained to the members the reason it was necessary for the Dade
League of municipalities to raise the dues for this year. He said that it is
estimated that the League will need $50,000 to $55,000 to fight consolidation of
the Police and Fire Departments with the metro government. On motion of mr. Beatty,
seconded by Mr. Printup, it was unanimously voted to pay the $1,000 dues and also
the $75.00 balance due from last year.

Resort Tax money could be used for anything that would enhance the Village as a
Resort area.
The Village manager said that due to the complaints last season of the
apartment owners bordering the parking area on Lots 1 and 2 Block 1 they had
discussed limiting the hours of parking during the tourist season on this lot. He
told the Council that he would like to recommend the hours of parking to be from
7:30 A.M. to 11:30 P.M. On motion of Mr. Printup, seconded by mr. Beatty, and
unanimously voted the hours for parking on Lots 1 and 2 Block 1 would be from 7:30
A.M. to 11:30 P.M. during the winter season.
mr. Taplin said the oceanfront property owners were quite upset about the sand
from the beach nourishment program being placed directly in front of the Harbour
House property and the Resort Association had a special meeting in regard to this and
also Collins Avenue being torn up for so long. Mr. Webb said he had attended this
meeting and brought the beach erosion pictures to show them how the sand would move
south. He also told them that plans were in process to rebuild the jetty at 96th
Street and trap the sand and keep it from moving south. He also said he wished to
negotiate with the man who owns the sand sucker that is operating at the Carillon
Hotel to dredg sand from the ocean. The Council authorized mr. Webb to negotiate
with m & m Dredging Company to pump additional sand over the 100,000 yards if any
is available and also the possibility of getting additional sand by use of the sand
sucker for the property owners at the South end of the Village. Also discussed was
the beautification program for Collins Avenue and mr. Webb assured them that as soon
as the contractor finishes and the State and County finish the landscaping it will
be augmented if necessary.
mr. Webb read a letter from mayor Clark of Miami in which he asked the Village
to donate $284.00 to the Greater Miami Coalition, Inc. It was the Council's opinion
that Mr. Webb would investigate this organization further before considering a
donation.
The Village Manager said that several months ago he had negotiated with the
County in regard to the County paying the difference in the cost of our power for the
new street lights on Collins Avenue. However, the County wants to take over mast of the

by mr. Printup and unanimously voted that the Village would not enter into this
Agreement with metro.
