The Board then discussed storing of gasoline above ground and after some discussion in the matter and upon Motion made by Commissioner Macdonald, seconded by Commissioner Waddell and unanimously carried, the Board tentatively approves adding to the Zoning Resolution under General Provisions, the following: Where an above ground storage of gasoline, petroleum oils, or similar inflamnable fluids are permitted, then as to any such facility for storage having a capacity in excess of 500 gallons, there shall be erected and maintained a dyked area surrounding it, and the volumn within the dyked area shall to 1 1/4 times the volumn of the above ground storage tanks. The minimum width of an earth dyke at the top shall be 4 feet, side slope to an appropriate angle of repose, and shall be capable of containing the liquid for a minimum of two days. The minimum heights of dykes shall be 3 feet. Other approved dykes constructed of concrete or other materials shall be permitted; provided, however, that this does not permit the erection of any structure outside of the limits of the set back Line of any zone. Jack Jennings of Carter Engineering Firm was recognized by the Chair and introduced Dave Langfitt and Fred Welker who presented a proposed plat to be known as ''Summer Place''. Mr. Langfitt stated this was to be a subdivi- sion to consist of small summer places for retired people only and all the roads would be private roads, except of course, A -1-A which runs practically through the middle. The County Engineer stated that he had not approved the plat for the reason that he wanted an additional 25 foot right of way on Wabasso Road and a half a street or a 35 foot strip at the North'End of the Subdivision to the ocean, and also rather than have the park area at the North end of the subdivision that they give us some lots adjacent to the Wabasso Beach Park. After considerable discussion, the Board tentatively approved the Plat as shown with the following changes: The Plat shall show all private roads so marked on the plat; 50 foot right of way for Wabasso road instead of a 25 foot right of way; 35 foot road on North end of S/D to the Ocean. Will give us Lot I and access strip adjacent to the Wabasso Beach Park. The Board requested the County Attorney contact Fred Tuerk to see if he will give Mr. Langfitt and Mr. Welker a 150 foot strip of land on the Island for a launching ramp for boats, which they will improve, to be used by the people living in the subdivision. If Mr. Tuerk will so agree, then Mr. Welker and Mr. Langfitt agree to convey Lot 2 also adjacent to the Wabasso Beach Park for additional park area.
