There was discussion on various types of zoning in Edgewater with the people present. Mrs. Straub spoke to the board about Mrs. McMillian on Indian River Boulevard wanting to build a garage on her property, and she is having trouble with the setbacks and also a fence next to her property line. If she builds the garage, Florida Power and Light will not be able to get to the light pole, because of the fence. The board members looked at the map of Florida Shores and discussed this with Mrs. Straub. Q o The setback requirements were read to Mrs. Straub. There was more discussion on various zoning regulations in theCity. There was discussion about building permits, and the Ordinances being enforced properly. Mr. Mackie stated that he has spoke with Mr. Critz of the Health Department in regard to the fruit stands that we have on the highway. He found that they have to have a permit, and a health card. The other restrictions are that they must have restrooms or they can get signed statements from the business, or public place or whatever that they have the privilege of the use of their restrooms. He said that he didn't get a chance to talk to Mr. Critz very much, so he will go back again and bring the board up to date at the next meeting. Mr. Taylor questioned if flea markets are allowed in Edgewater. Mr. Brittingham explained that there is nothing in the Ordinance which allows it or disallows it. There was much discussion in regard to the enforcing of the Zoning laws, who is responsible for it and how is it being done. Mr. Wolfe stated that he feels that if we had a building inspec- tor, who was also in charge of the Zoning laws, this would work out very well. Mr. Mackie made a motion to adjourn the meeting, being seconded by Mr. Brittingham. Said motion CARRIED. Meeting adjourned. Q~f*S -2-
