name of J.A. Spannagel, 1201 Merry Oaks Drive -
Koehler pointed out that the applicant cited no unique or unusual
circumstances and that setbacks were observed by existing structures
throughout the neighborhood.
Upham said that he had observed no unusual condition and that
there would be a sight distance problem when Carol Street was extended.
Harper said that there might be an alternative conforming location
and that the owner should be able to discuss this point. In the absence
of unique or special conditions not now shown, the Board could not
grant a variance.
Upham moved that the request be tabled until the next meeting.

Agenda Item No. 3 - Consideration of a request fora Variance in the
name of J.E. Kuder, Jr., 1020 Puryear -
Koehler introduced a plat showing the setback line and a petition
of support from near neighbors. He said that the sixty foot right-of-
way was not normal fora residential street but that most houses along
the street complied with the setback. He pointed out that up to six
feet of overhang of front or rear setback was allowed by the ordinance.
Upham remarked that all other structures along the street observed
the setback and that the character of the neighborhood was as sig-
nificant a factor as the amount of space behind the curb.
Harper added that one of the intents of the ordinance is to achieve
a degree of uniformity within neighborhoods and that the interests
of future owners and neighbors is to be considered.

Harper moved that a variance be granted to the minimum setback
requirement allowing a twelve foot encrochment in that it would not
be contrary to the public interest and owing to unique and special
conditions of the land a strict application of the ordinance would
result in unecessary hardship. The motion was seconded by Upham
and the note was as follows:
For: None
The Chairman declared the motion lost.
Agenda Ttem No. 4 - Adjourn -
There being no other business the meeting was declared adjourned.
