Mr. Thomas Cairnes, Project Director for "The Gardens" regional shopping
mall, addressed the City Council requesting a two -ye.r extension of the

approved July 3, 1986, by Resolution 29, 1986. Mr. Cairnes stated this
pertains to the sign located on the corner of Alternate A -1 -A and PGA

the City in opening ceremonies for charitable organizations. Councilman
Kiselewski stated the temporary signage was approved based on the mall's
request to let people know they were here, and he felt that has been
accomplished. Councilwoman Monroe felt the mall could provide a number to
call or an individual to see re: leasing in the mall office. Mayor Feeney
and Vice Mayor Martino had no problem extending the permissible time for
this temporary signage with the improvements, however, felt a one year
limit would be more reasonable. The City council will discuss this
further at their Regular Meeting of June 16, 1988.

bridge on PGA Boulevard. Councilman Kiselews'i stated his concerns with
the mass of the project and the hotel being situated next to the residen-
tial. Councilman Kiselewski also expressed concerns re: traffic. Vice
Mayor Martino felt a traffic signal would be to serve this project as well
as the proposed Soverel Harbour project across the street, and move the
hotel to another place on this site so it will not abut residential pro-
perty. Councilwor:ar Monroe suggested, if this project is approved, that
there be a stipulation of no out -door music. Councilwoman Monroe also
expressed concern with the number of parking spaces provided fcr the
restaurant.
Several residents from the, area addressed the City Council expressing
their concerns with noise from this project and traffic through the resi-
dential area. The City Council and developer was agreeable to possibly
curbing off Kidd Lane, if the County was also agreeable.
