of ~ay 7
Mr. DeMarco moved that the minutes be-accepted as read.
Mr. Rehburg seconded. Notion carried.
A Resolution was read regarding the p~operty at the South end
of town. belonging to the County. (Resolution attached).
The Mayor said he supp~osed the _many citizens here tonight
were interested in the tentatively suggested air strip, but
after attending the hearing a~ West palm ~Beach last week he real-
Ised that such an aim strip was not favored. Hesaid he feels
that public lands lying within the limites of Bo~ton should be
used by Boynton and its citizens in accordance with thei~ wishes.
M_~. Miles.sa~d he wishe~ to go on record as being opposed
to the air strmp idea and demanded that a reservation be added to
the Resolut~ion stating that the land wouldnot be zoned for an
air strip~
Mr. Weaver said that at present the land is Class 'F', which
is a holding zone and nothing can be pu~ in except by approval of
the CoumciI.
Mr. Shook said that at the meeting et West Palm Beach no one
was w~ in favor of, or even interested in the air strip sugges-
tion.
~. John McFarlane speaking for the residents of Chapel
Hill, voiced objection to an air strip, ~as did many ~5hers present.
Mr. De~arco said the matter seemed cut and d~ied to him.
He agreed the place was not good for an alp strip, and added that
the City would be lucky if it got about five acres for a park,
as the County intends to sell the land.
The Mayor thought the County meant to take the laud for a
Cotu~ty or Munic~Pal park, and would not give any to Boynton,
but that if f~is sold Boynton should receive part of the money.

necessary hardship. __
Mr. Griffith pointed out that the Ordinance had been good
in certain ~ases s~h as trailer parks on the highway, but that
all laws and ordinances~ should be tempered With reason. Mr.
Johnson then asked if he had to pave his restaurant and the
property he iowns further north before next August, or whether
these, can be made exceptions ~o the ordinance, which he thinks
should be' revised.
The Ma~or samd ~ would be put on the agenda for the

meeti~gwith the Oounci! and Mt.Taylor to see if something cannot
be A~anged until the highway goes through.
