This is to advise that the Town of Gulf Stream has designated a historic
corridor within our community. This was done to preserve the traditional
and natural charm of our community.
The entire portion of the North Ocean Boulevard right-of-way, that lies
within the Town of Gulf Stream, and a fifty foot strip of private
property adjacent to the right-of-way on the east and west sides of the
right-of-way, have been designated as the corridor. This area is bounded
on the north, by Sea Road, and on the south by Pelican Lane.
In designating the corridor, certain reasonable controls have been placed
on activity within that area. It is now necessary to obtain a permit, for
which there is no charge, before commencing any of the following: Any
additions, alterations, or removal of vegetation berms, walls, gates, fences,
columns, driveways, walkways, or other impervious areas or structures.
The removal of dead or diseased trees and vegetation, pruning, lawn care,
and accepted horticultural practices are, of course, allowed without a
permit.
If any work is being contemplated in any of these areas kindly contact the
Town Hall at 276-5116, to determine the information that will be required when
requesting a permit.
Within the historic corridor, only one driveway cut per buildable lot
shall be allowed and the driveway is to be situated in a manner so as to
require the least disturbance of landscape features.
It is also necessary to apply for a permit before beginning any proposed
demolition. If permission for demolition is granted, there will be a fee
for this type of permit.
Contractor Signs are not permitted in the corridor. The matter of Real
Estate Signs is still under study. It is suggested that Town Hall be
contacted before any Real Estate Sign is placed in the corridor.
Your cooperation in helping us protect
