Mr. Richard Hasner, representing a committee of various groups of North Palm Beach residents. hoping to beautify th.e medians along U. S. Highway One from North.lake Boulevard to the Parker Bridge, addressed the Village Council seeking their support and approval of this endeavor. They plan to plant Queen Palms in the medians without any increase in maintenance. to the Village. Mr. Tony Cass, Landscape Contractor, presented a plan to the Council for their comments. Mr. Cass stated it would take approximately eighty-one palm trees for the area in mind at a cost of about $10,000. The group plans to raise the money for this project from the merchants, tenants of office buildings, etc: along U. S. High- way One, and other associations and groups. Mr. Hasner stated that a fund was started at their last meeting and several con- tributions have already been made. The group had several requests from Old Port Cove. Old Port Cove wishes to participate in this beautification project, but as of now there are some problems. There is no water in the medians, they have no curbing and, therefore, beautification of this area cannot take place until the problems are resolved. Mr. Hasner said they are asking the Village Council for support and to help their group seek the proper approvals from the Department of Transportation. The Village has, several times in the past, requested DOT to allow somebody to put in curbs and irrigation along U. S. Highway One north of the Parker Bridge to the Monastery without affirmative results. How- ever, Ray Howland, Village Manager, stated that we will continue to pursue this through our State Legislators, or by any other means necessary to obtain the results needed. The Council expressed to Mr. Hasner their full support of the beautification project. ROLL CALL TNVOCATTON & PLEDGE OF ALLEGIANCE APPROVAL OF MINUTES PRESENTATION OF CHAPLAIN`S BADGES U. S-.
