stated that the Akers have signed an agreement that if these improvements
are not approved, they will remove the changes that have been made or
0 redo it to conform to what is approved. He reminded that this should
%�
not influence the Board one way or another in arriving at a decision
regarding this application.

X. Public.
Mr. James Stenson, 540 Old School Road, Gulf Stream, Florida
was recognized and stated a strong objection to the outdoor lighting
at the Crocker residence. He reported that the strong lights .
l J) on the garage shine into the windows of the next door neighbors, Mr.
& Mrs. Meyer. He further reported that flood lights (pink) fully
illuminate the walls of the structure at 3580 Polo Drive which is owned
by Mr. & Mrs. Crocker. Mr. Stenson believes that the extensive outdoor
lighting is not in keeping with the character of the Town and if there
is nothing to prevent this, an ordinance should be adopted to do so. He
further reported that sprinklers run every night at this location and
water accumulates in the street as a result.
Mr. Harrington advised he would research the codes regarding the lighting
and would check into the matter of daily lawn irrigation.
XI. Adjournment.
Vice Chairman Lynch adjourned the meeting at 9:45 A.M. on a
motion to do so made by Mrs. Souder and seconded by Mrs. Winston with all
