Board of Appeals and Adjustment (Lot width variance) - County Road C between English and Elm Streets. (7:30 P.M.) a. Chairman Haugan convened the meeting for a public hearing on a request of Mr. James L. Gunn, III, 2632 Southlawn Drive for a variance from the min- imum lot area and lot width requirements as set forth in the Village Zoning Code Section 904.030. The Clerk read the notice of hearing along with the dates of publication. b. Manager Miller stated the applicant requests a variance from the minimum lot width requirement (75 feet) to allow the development of a 66 foot wide platted lot. The lots in this area were platted in 1924. Sanitary Sewer is available to the lot in question, and public water has been ordered for the area. It is felt that due to the fact that separate ownerships are involved in the nonconforming lot and the surrounding properties, the applicant does have the right to develop the nonconforming lot. Therefore, it is recommend- ed that the variance be granted. c. Commissioner Bill Howard presented the Planning Commission report. d. Chairman Haugan called for persons who wish to speak for or against the proposal. None were heard. e. Chairman Haugan moved to close the public hearing. f. Councilman Wiegert moved to approve the request of Mr. James L. Gunn, III to build a single family dwelling on a 66 foot wide lot lepa, lly described as, Lot 27. Gardena Addition.
