area to the property line on the new addition and requested the Council to permit this
additional variance. It was moved by Mr. Villeneuve, seconded by Mr. Printup and

Mr. Maley said he had talked to Mr. von Oesen last week who informed him that the
Corps of Engineers had completed the technical review of our beach restoration plan and
that there is some debate on the length of the north jetty. He said the feeling of the
Corps of Engineers is that they are in favor of the project and as soon as the plan is
approved by the Corps we will push for inclusion in this year's Federal Budget. Mr.
Maley also said that the .5 million dollar appropriation from the State will be a con-
tinuing appropriation into next year's State Budget. It is hopeful that the north jetty
can be started by November of this year.
Mr. Maley explained that the City of Miami Library system is to be taken over by
Dade County this October and we will not be able to contract with the City of Miami for
library service after that time, but will be charged on the county wide millage basis
for library service if we do not find another way of providing library service for our
residents. He told the Council that Mr. Duffield is contacting the City of Miami Beach
to see if they would run the Surf-Bal-Bay Library and if they are not willing to con-
tract with us that Surfaide will consider operating the library and Bay Harbor and Bal
Harbour can contract with them. It is the feeling of the managers of the three towns
that it would be a great saving to our taxpayers to operate this library either through
Miami Beach or Surfside.
It was moved by Mr. Brush, seconded by Mr. Villeneuve and unanimously voted that
Mr. Beatty would continue to represent Bal Harbour on the Dade County League of
Municipalities Board of Directors.
Mr. Maley said the contract for the merger of the Fire Department of Bay Harbor
and Bal Harbour with Dade County had been finalized and signed by the two towns and
was being submitted to Dade County for their approval. He said that the site at
96th Street and Bal Bay Drive was not adequate for the County and that the County had
agreed to build the fire station on the old auto inspection site at the south end of
Baker's Haulover Park. In regard to the operation of the heart mobile after the
County take-over on October 1, 1971, Mr.Maley said that the County Manager's office
will confirm in writing their willingness to operate the equipment which some of our
residents have offered to donate.
Mr. Maley said the Collins Avenue architects have suggested that the bids be let
for the landscaping on the west aide of Collins Avenue to allow the contractor sufficient
time to locate the specified trees and that he would also like to order the bus benches
at this time. It was the opinion of the Council that bids be taken for the landscape
work and that the bus benches be ordered.
There being no further business on motion of Mt. Taplin, seconded by Mr. Brush
and unanimously voted the meeting was adjourned at 10:40 A.M.
