Councilman Va lier said they did not want trailers parked in the Village. Mr. A. W, Butterfield., 165 Golf View Drive, Tequesta, questioned the restrictions if applicable to fold down campers since they could easily be screpnpd fra~m view by plants or fences, Mr. Tedeschi, 20 Tradewinds Circle, Country Club Point, questioned where guests would put their trailers while visiting. IL was suggested that perhaps the ordinance could provide for the parking of trailers in the area of the Village lying between the railroad right of-way and the west line of the Intra coasts 1 Waterway.. Valier moved, second by Sylvester and passed that action en the trailer ordinance be tabled for further discussion. The Village Attorney gave first reading to an ordinance to change the off-street parking regulations relating to C-1 and G2 Districts as approved by the Village Council at a Public Hearing held • January 16, 1968. Cornelius moved, second by Sylvester and passed that the first reading of the ordinance be approved. The Village Attorney advised that Attorney Amadeo Meitin, Attorney for Adele R. Schlusemeyer, Trustee, owner of Parcel "C" and Lots 6 and 15, Block 30, Jupiter in the Pines, Section B, had contacted him requesting that the Village Council abandon a 12 foot utility ease- ment, being the east 6 feet of Parcel C and the west 6 feet of Lots 6 and 15, Block 30, 3upiter in the Pines, Section B and to accept a new easement deed covering the west 12 feet of Lots 6 and 15, Block 30, Jupiter in the Pines, Section B.

Cornelius moved, second by Cornelius and passed that Brockway, Owen ~ Anderson Engineers, Inc. be retained as the Village Water Department Consulting Engineers pursuant to the ternts and condi- tions as outlined in their letter proposal and the Mayor and Village Clerk be and are hereby authorized to enter into such an agreement. The Village Attorney advised that the Council would probably have to hold a Special Meeting to conclude the Water Company purchase and he would advise the Village Manager when the meeting is to be held.

Mr. Irving Schlusemeyer, representing Pilot Homes, Inc., introduced Mr. Joseph J. Laterza, Registered Civil Engineer No. 6506, to discuss with the Councilmen the use of monolithic slabs in the Tillage. Mr. Ia.terza explained monolithic pours and emphasized that he would only approve the use of such slabs providing undisturbed soil • of suitable bearing capacity is present at the footing elevation. He also stated the footing or thickened slab section should have the same dimensions and reinforcing steel as would be used in a normal spread footing for the same structure. He further advised the Council that he would sign and seal a letter approving this method of construction for each individual lot on which such a slab was to be constructed following an on-site inspection of the Iot. It was the general feeling of the Council that such a slab, properly designed by a registered engineer and with suitable undistrubed soil at the footing elevation and class inspection while being formed and poured, would not bean inferior type of construction. Cornelius moved, second by Sylvester and passed that the use of monolithic slabs, as designed and sealed by a registered engineer and with written approval of a registered engineer for each individual lot on which it is to be constructed, be approved. Mr. Laterza also stated that he is in the process of preparing plans and specifications for the construction of Beacon Street, Church Road and Fra.nk2in Road in Blocks 31, 32 and 14, Jupiter in the Pines, Section 4 and D, together with drainage, water and se~aerage.

Jarrett, owner of Lot 9, Block D, Jupiter Manors, on which he is presently constructing his residence, had expressed a desire to have this property annexed to the Village. Each Counci]man had received a plat shodring the location of this property across Point Drive near the north entrance to Bay Harbor. The Council expressed agreement t~rith such an annexation and Mr. Jarrett mill be advised of the steps necessary to have his property annexed to the Village. Councilman Sylvester suggested that the local Izaak Vdalton League needed a place to hold one meeting and had asked if the Village Hall could be used since it ~rould be fora community project. The Council agreed that the present policy of non-municipal use should not be changed but believed this to be a meeting that could be properly authorized.
