Call to Order and Roll Call
The Village of Tequesta Historic Preservation Committee held a regularly scheduled

Approval of Agenda
MOTION: Board Member Hutchinson made a motion to approve the agenda as
submitted. Board Member Resnik seconded the motion, which carried
unanimously 5-0.
1. Discussion of "Florida is Turning 500" — Reports from Committee Members
regarding information received from Muriel Sylvester, Doc Grogan, and Dr.
Floyd, plus any other information since last meeting
The members reported they had not received any additional information from the
residents contacted. Recording Secretary Laur provided a draft history of the Village for
the "Florida is Turning 500" project, which the members reviewed and made changes
and additions.
Board Member Campbell suggested whenever an old-time resident provided an
interview that it be recorded and then typed up and saved in the archives.
2. Discussion of shelving proposal from William Murphy
Recording Secretary Laur presented a quote from William Murphy to provide shelving
for storing historic memorabilia in the amount of $575.00. He had suggested shelves
19" deep, adjustable up and down. In the small space left on the right side of the space,
he would provide smaller floor to ceiling shelves.
Board Member Campbell displayed a plastic filing box that accommodated Pendaflex
hanging files, which she recommended for storing records. Discussion ensued.
Recording Secretary Laur advised the material might not be archival, and she would
research to see if it was appropriate to provide acid-free storage.
