Chairwoman Cook agreed to do so. •B) Chairwoman Cook stated she would also write a letter to Palm Beach County Commissioner Karen Marcus regarding 1) improving landscaping in front of Rinkers which was damaged during the County's widening of Old Dixie Highway; and 2) the placement of galvanized steel Armco barriers in that location. Victor Strahan left the meeting at 9:55 a.m. VI. ANY OTHER MATTERS A) Boardmember Maitland felt it would behoove the Community Appearance Board to have a one-sheet description/guideline of the Village's preferences for an overall Village look to be presented to applicants who want to re-face or upgrade their properties. Scott Ladd reminded the. Board that Village Council never adopted the suggestions of the Planning Commission Report where such a description/guideline would be found. Vice Chairman Coben recalled that the Village Attorney had informed him that the look merely must be "harmonious with the surrounding neighborhood.
