2. APPROVAL OF PRIOR MEETING MINUTES

A. Minutes No. 98-5- Regular Meeting - February 24, 1998

Mr. Fischer moved to approve Minutes No. 98-5. Mr. Doherty seconded. Motion carried unanimously.

3. REPORTS AND DISCUSSIONS

A. Review of Code Sec 17-127 (16) - Breezeways (Continued from the February 24, 1998 meeting)

Town Planner Ed Washburn explained the two options he had drafted for consideration.Option One is essentially the existing code applied to the entire Tourist zoned area with an additional paragraph addressing irregularly shaped properties with frontage on both Wavecrest and A1A. Option Two applies the breezeway requirements only to properties in the Tourist zone with ocean frontage.

Mr. Washburn explained that in most other municipalities codes addressing breezeways apply to oceanfront property and not particular zoning districts. He advised that the code section is a protection against any changes in state regulations which currently mandate a 40% breezeway east of the coastal construction line.

Mr. Fischer moved to adopt Option Two subject to approval by the Town Attorney and submit that recommendation to the Town Council for consideration. Mr. Kleving seconded. Motion carried with Mr. Kostro, Mr. Fischer, Mr. Kleving, Ms. Harris and Mr. Doherty voting "yes".  Mr. MacNeil voted "no".

B. Review of Chapter 17 to determine outdated laws (Continued from the February 24, 1998 meeting)

It was the consensus of the Board to review the written comments submitted by each member and to begin discussions at the next meeting. The comments from Mr. Bogert, Mr. Doherty and Mr. Fischer will be reviewed in April.
