.. BOARD OF ZONING APPEALS AUGUST 3, 1988 PAGE 7 12. Richard Zajak, 6581 Barton Road Request for variance (1123.12). Request 11 foot variance for distance between house and detached garage. Violation of Ord. 87-93, Section 1135.02(c)1. Chairman Remmel called all interested parties before the Board. The oath was administered to Mr. and Mrs. Zajak and Mr. Johnson, contractor. Mr. Bugala is concerned since there is so much property to the rear of the proposed garage and there would be no difficulty constructing a conforming garage. Mrs. Zajak stated that the adjacent yards were joined :tagether and installing a garage 20 feet from the house would break that up. Mr. Zajak stated that their neighbors had no objection to the proposal and they wanted to be able to see their children in the back yard. Mr. Gomersall pointed out that there was a safety factor involved. Mr. Grace believes that since the lot is wide and there is space on either side of the house, there would not be as much of a safety factor and also pointed out that they had an.elaborate swing set structure behind the proposed garage. Mr. Bugal.a cautioned them that if they ever wanted a covered patio they would need another variance. Building Com- missioner Conway advised that if the variance is granted all walls and roof within 20 feet of the house must be covered.with 5/8th inch hard-coat drywall. B. Grace moved to grant the request for an 11 foot variance for the distance between the house and detached garage for Mr. R.ichard Zajak with the condition that 5/8ths hard coat drywall must be installed on all walls and roo£ areas within 30 feet of the structure; seconded by J. Helon.. Roll call on mot.ion:. Grace, Helon, Gomersall, and Remmel, yes. Bugala,"no. Motion carried. Variance granted. Mr. Conway pointed out that a building permit had been - issued for an addition on the same property and if, as shown on the site plan, the front set back of the addition is 99 feet from the side walk a special permit should have been required. He requested that the Board expand the docket to include the special permit for the addition. Board had no problem with that request. R. Bugala moved to grant permission to build an addition 99 feet off the front property line as as a special permit to add to a non- conforming structure, seconded by R. Grace, and unanimously approved.
