THL COUNCILMEAt OF TIC VILLfsGE OF TFQUFSTA
A Special Meeting of the Councilmen of the Village of
Tequesta was held Tuesday, December 29, 1964 at 5:00 P.NI. at
the Village Office in Village Square Shopping Center. Council-
men present were: Messrs. Valier, Turnbull, Bowden, Cornelius
and Stewart. Also present were Attorney tiJill.iam Lord and
Robert Harp, Village Clerk.
Mayor Valier stated that Section 5 of Ordinance No. 23
provides that all Village Voters i:~ust re-register commencing
January 1, 1965 and it is the general feeling of Council that
such re-registration is not necessary at this time and the
Ordinance should be amended to eliminate this requirement.
Cornelius moved, seconded by Turnbull and passed that Section
5 of Ordinance No. 23 be repealed. A discussion ensued scout
purging of the Registration Rolls and it eras decided to look
into the possibility of working out some plan with the Fa]m
Beach County Registration Officer to have any Village resident
registering in Palm beach County to be also registered in the
Village of Tequesta.
The Village Clerlr advised of a request frog. Bruce Y.
and Jacquelin D. Brett and George P. Brett, Jr. and Tequesta
Sales Corp. for the Village to a'oandon and vacate a utility
easement on the South five (5) feet of the East 110 feet of
Lot 598, Tequesta and the North five (5) feet of the Fast 110
feet of Lot 599, Tequesta, said lots 'oeing owned by a'oove res-
pectively. The Clerk explained that the West 20 feet was for
an anchor easement and caas already in use. ~-ie further advised
that letters from vouthern Fell Telephone Company and Florida
Power ~ Light Company stating th~rhad no objection to the vacating
and abandonment of the utility easement as described had been
received. The Village Manager stated he could see no reason
for any objection to the request. Cornelius moved, seconded
by Bowden and passed that the request for vacating and aban-
donment of the utility easement on the South five (5) feet of
the Fast one hundred ten (110) feet of Lot No. 598, Tequesta,
and the North five (5) feet of the Last one hundred ten (110)
feet of Lot 599, Tequesta be approved and the Mayor and Village
Clerk be authorized to execute a Release of Easement for this
purpose.
Attorney Lord advised the Council that Brockway,
4~leber and Brockway had estisr~,ted a cost of X400,00 fora written
description of the present Village '~oundaries including a hand-
hold map, for use in presenting sane to the 1965 State Legisla-
ture for approval. Cornelius noved, seconded by Ern,,rden and
passed that the Village proceed at once with having the fine
of Brockway, Weber ~ Brockway write a description of the present
territorial limits of the Village and prepare a map of same, and
the Village Attorney is authorized to proceed with preparing
this material for presentation to the 1965 session of the State
Legislature for their approval. Attorney Lord also advised
the necessity of preparing any other matters for presentation
to the legislature for approval.
Cornelius moved, seconded by Bowden and passed that
discussion of garbage and trash be tabled to a ]ester meeting.
The Village Clerk stated that Mr. Motherwell, otmer
of the Carriage House on Tequesta Drive, would like to know if
the Council would approve the planting of several (perhaps three)
royal palm trees in front of the Carriage House in Palm Beach
County Right-of-Way, providing the County would withdraw their
earlier refusal of this request. It was the feeling of some
mem'aers that this was a breatc in the previous planting and
should be done since it had previously been done on the east
approach to the bridgeM The Village Manager said it is doubtful
if there is enough room on the south side of the road for such
planting. Cornelius moved, seconded by Bowden and passed that
the Village install up to three (3) royal palm trees in front of
the Carriage House, if Palm Beach County should grant their
approval, said installation '~eing made su'oj.:ct to watering, etc.
ro be assurs~ed by Mr. Motherwell and/or +rhe `~:arriage House Apart-
ments .

The Village Manager was asked to see that gr~.vel,
tree limbs, etc. are removed froiii Village streets through coopera-
tion of the Police Department. I-fe is also to obtain costs of
filling in depressions in streets in Country Club Community where
settlement is occuring at location of drainage pipes.
The Councilmen discussed the poor condition of the
railroad crossing on Tequesta Drive and the Florida East Coast
Railway Company is to be asked to make immediate repairs to it
to prevent damage to automobiles and possibly causing accidents.
Mayor Valier read a letter from CounciLnan Stewart
submitting his resignation from the Village Council effective
December 31, 1964. The letter stated he is returning to
Auborn University in early January, 196 Cornelius moved,
seconded by Turnbull and passed, that Councilman Stewart~s re-
signation be accepted, with regret, and that a properly en-
graved certificate be prepared and sent to Mr. Stewart in recog-
nition of his service to the Village of Tequesta.
There being no further business to come before the
meeting, the meeting was adjourned at 8:45 P.M, with all wishing
