Ocean Blvd. Mr. William Mayer, 2925 N. Polo Drive Gentlemen, A meeting of the Planning Board is scheduled for Thursday, 18 Jan 1973, 9100AM, at City Hall to discuss the following items. 1. A proposed ordinance providing for a zoning classification titled, "Outdoor Recreational Land." The Gulf Stream Golf Club, The Little Club, and The Bath and Tennis Club desire to have their property classified in this way; the present classification is "Residence District A." Atty. Patrick Coughlan represents the three clubs and will be present to make a proposal. It is important that the Planning Board act on this item at this time so that we can make a re- commendation to the Town Commission for its special meeting on 22 Jan 1973. 2. Other zoning ordinance modifications which may be discussed but not necessarily resolved includes A. A requirement that set back lines conform to the applicable deed restrictions when these are more restrictive than the general Gulf Stream requirements. B. Some restriction on the location of air - conditioning condensors, pool pumps, and other machinery which might generate noise problems. C. A zoning classification for land used for school purposes. D. A specification of divisions including storm drainage, and plans and drawings. 3. Mr. William Mayer appointed a member of Commission. cc Mayor Koch Mr. Patrick Coughlan requirements for sub - access roads, cul -de -sacs, approval of subdivision has been nominated and has been the Planning Board by the Town Sincerely, M V V;0 Chairman '1 MINUTES PLANNING BOARD MEETING 18 Jan 73 Items discussed: I. Outdoor Recreational Land An amendment to the Zoning Ordinance to create the subject classification and district was submitted by Patrick Coughlan. The district is proposed to include land owned by Th� Little Club, Inc., the Gulf Stream Golf Club, Inc., and the 4 th and Tennis Club, Inc. TY,_. , 9 With minor alterations it was approved by the board for re- commendation to the Town Commission for consideration in its meeting 22 Jan 73. 2. Conformance of Set Back Lines With Deed Restrictions Discussion brought out the fact that the present Zoning Ordinance, Sec.XI A,specifies that the ordinance in no way reduces restrictions imposed by deed or covenant. A proper effort to enforce deed restrictions before issuance of building permits could involve extensive title searches and analysis. The Town is not prepared to take on the legal responsibilities which might be involved and this is not the responsibility of the Town. Nearby towns make no effort to enforce deed restrictions. It is recommended that this item be dropped. 3. Zoning District for School Use Atty, Patrick Coughlan has agreed to prepare a proposal on this subject for consideration by the Board at some future meeting. Progress will be reported. 4. Requirements for Approval of Sub Division Plans The Board recognizes the merit of controlling, in some way, the layout of access roads, cul -de -sacs, drainage systems, and other matters in any new subdivision in the Town. The writing of such an ordinance would require legal advice. The Board seeks further direction from the Commission. Specifically, should the Town Counsel be asked to work on this at this time? 5. Location of A/C and other noisey machinery It has been proposed that some restriction on location of such noisey machinery be considered. The Board feels that in a practical sense any ordinance of this kind would necessarily be far too complex to be enforceable. No community, in this country or in Europe, has noise ordinances which are really satisfactory. It is recommended that this item be dropped. cc Mr. John Bordeman Mr. Evans Clements Mr. William Mayer Mr. Robert Reed Mayor William Koch Members of the Commission Ch. 800 Tangerine Way 1330 N.
