TOWN,OF GULF STREAM
AUGUST 5, 1992, 9:00 AM
TOWN HALL OF GULF STREAM
100 SEA ROAD, GULF STREAM, FLORIDA
I. The meeting was called to order by the Chairman,
Jeanne Breazeale at 9:20 AM. In attendance were
Jeanne Breazeale, Mary Windle, Kim Tiernan, Scott
Harrington and Betsy Hvide observed.
II. Mary Windle moves that the minutes from the previous
meetings be approved and signed. Kim Tiernan seconds
the motion.
III. Brief discussion is held regarding the Florida Urban
and Community Forestry Conference to be held in
Orlando September 9th - 11th. Who can attend? Mary
and Jeanne commit to go and Kim is undecided.
IV. Mary Windle states that she spoke with Skip Randolph
regarding setting up a Tree Fund. Skip told her to
contact Scott Harrington to open a separate bank
account. All donation checks should be made out to
The Town of Gulf Stream and earmarked "Tree Fund."
The Commission can vote at any time to re -allocate
these funds should they choose to. The alternative to
this arrangement would be to set up a tax exempt
corporation, but all in attendance agreed that this
was not necessary at this time. Skip also told Mary
that any decisions regarding fundraising events must
be decided at a regular NOBLAC public meeting. He
also advised us that Betsy Hvide can not serve on
NOBLAC as well as the Zoning Board.
V. Jeanne poled the group's feelings regarding adding a
5th member to NOBLAC. Mary and Kim agreed that this
was a good idea. Suggestions included Eleanor Woolems
and Sammy Winston. It was decided to shelve and
decisions on this issue until the end of September.
VI. Jeanne advises the group that DOT plans to remove the
dead Australian Pine trees before the end of August
and suggests that we re-evaluate the condition of the
remaining trees and request that DOT also remove those
trees deemed to be in negligible condition. This
would save the town the expense of trimming and or
removing said trees in the near future. The group
agrees and plans to walk the trees at the close of
this meeting.
VII. Scott Harrington presents group members with a large
packet of information regarding programs and grants
that may be available to us. He also gives each
member a "tree map" of North Ocean Boulevard.
VIII. Jeanne suggests a meeting date of Wednesday, September
16, 1992, at 12:00 Noon. Mary makes the motion and
Kim seconds. The motion is passed.
IX. The committee adjourns to examine the questionable
trees along North Ocean Boulevard.
X. Mary makes a motion to allow DOT to remove the three
questionable trees. Kim seconds and the motion is
passed.
XI. Jeanne Breazeale adjourns the meeting at 10:40 AM.
Respectfully submitted:
Kimberly A. Tiernan
Secretary
