TEQUESTA PLANNING COMMISSION
MINUTES OF MEETING
NOVEMBER 1 4 , 1 9 8 8
The Tequesta Planning Commission held its meeting on Monday,
November 14, 1988 at 7:30 P.M. , in the Village Hall, 357 Tequesta
Drive, Tequesta, Florida.
Members present were: Dr. Stanley B. Jacobs, Chairman; Mary S.
Corr, Vice-Chairman; Alfred S. De Mott, Acting Secretary; Eloda
Tangney, James Pilz, James Stergas, and Fred Elsaesser, members
The minutes of October 10, 1988 meeting were approved as read
with one correction to include Eloda Tangney as being present.
Old Business:
1 ) Entry medians at U.S. Highway One. Chairman Jacobs is
hoping that the Village will get the project started. The
Committee recommended to clean up the median as soon as
possible.
2) Jim Pilz reported that the 707 project was approved by the
Village Council, and $500.00 was approved and added for
next year' s budget, as well as two wells for 1989. The
project will include Route 707 to the bridge. Approval
included Floratam with water, palm trees, and a few flower
beds, which expenses will be shouldered by the Village of
Tequesta. Phase II will begin after Phase I has been
completed.
ENTRY SIGN. - The Chairman discussed the drawings for the
project. Gee & Jenson recommended a side entrance and no
signs for center. Jim Pilz stated that the Planning Commission
should have a joint meeting with the Community Appearance Board
and Tom Bradford, Village Manager, on Monday, to discuss the
signs and that the Planning Commission's first choice would
still be to have signs in the center. If the majority feels,
however, that the two corner signs would be more satisfactory
and acceptable to citizens of Tequesta, there will be many
questions to ask concerning the proposed signs of each side of
the entrances.
DRAWING NO. 1. - Jim Stergas was closest to what they started
out with. Still will draw attention to Step-Saver when looking
at that wall and sign.

DRAWING NO. 2. - Planters may create problems.
DRAWING NO. 3. - Room for additional plantings behind the wall,
less green space in front.
Mary Corr, Vice-Chairman, prefers having a concave wall.
Suggesting that there would not be enough room for trees behind it
otherwise. Alfred DeMott was not in favor of Drawing #1 or # 2
(nothing original. ) Should be a little ornate. Eloda Tangney said
it should curve with the road. Fred Elsaesser was in favor of a
curved wall. Six members were in favor of item #3. Pilz was not in
favor of any of them. He does not see the need for sign to read
"Village" . Chairman Jacobs feels this should be something special
and not ordinary; entry walls to any community should be more
creative.
NEW BUSINESS - Mary Corr suggested the Planning Commission
establish a Beautification Bank Fund so that organizations could
make donations for shrubs and flowers. Questioned whether or not
there was a Landscape or Improvement Fund for the Village of
Tequesta?
Jim Pilz stated we would need seed money for future projects
for real estate that is not moving.
It was decided that a Workshop meeting should be held to
discuss long range planning for the two shopping centers. Chairman
Jacobs suggested that a developer should be contacted to attend the
meeting to see what can be done. Chairman Jacobs sent a letter to
Mr. Bradford regarding the same.
It was suggested that Ed Nelson and a representative from
MacArthur Foundation Company be invited to the next meeting.
There being no other business to be discussed, the meeting was
adjourned at 10:00 P.M.
Respectfully submitted,
