McHone, Treat, Driscoll, Dilling, Hankins, Building Inspector Willson Absent: Anderson Meeting was opened at 7:30 P.M. in the Council Chambers. Minutes of the previous meeting were approved as received. Old Business - There was no old business brought up for discussion. New Business - Four variances or Conditional Use ~pplications had been received and properly posted for hearing at this time. Richard Correia, 801 East 11th Street had requested a variance from the rear yard setback requirements of an RS-7 zone which would per- mit him to construct a single garage on the concrete retaining wall enclosing his backyard. Following a brief discussion it was voted to recommend approval of this request. Nebert Brothers, operating the service station on the northwest corner of First and Liberty Streets had requested a variance from the alley setback requirements of a CAD zone to enable them to construct an addition to their existing structure. The addition would lie parallel with Liberty Street and extend to the south margin of the alley. During the ensuing discussion it was brought out that parking and loading access will be on the west side of the addition with no openings in the north wall. It was voted to recommend the application be approved. Timothy J. Swegle, 1105 South "In Street had requested a variance to allow him to construct a single garage closer to the right-of-way of an arterial street than permitted in an RS-7 zone. The discussion pointed up the fact that the site Mr. Swegle has chosen for the garage location is the most practical spot on his property, due to the slope of the land, also owning a 50' corner lot abutting an arterial, it would be impossible to setback the 35' required. Futher- more, his proposed setback is adequate to park his car completely off the sidewalk area even when not in the garage. After a brief discussion it was voted to recommend approval of this application. Mrs. M. A. Brandland had requested a v?riance to permit the operation of a ceramic studio in a building she owns at 101ll West 11th Street. A brief discussion took place, after which it was voted to recommend approval of the request with the stipulation the variance is to be non-transferable to any other party or for any other operation at this location. Other Business - Mr. Gary Monnot of 1109 Craig Ave. appeared to discuss his plans for enlarging a pre-existing, non-conforming single family residence. Chairman of the Planning Commission advised him to apply for a variance. No further business was presented and the meting adjourned at 8:00 P.M.
