BOARD OF ZONING APPEALS FEBRUARY 7, 1990 PAGE 2 's in 1986 but he could not afford to construct the addition at that time. He advised that these plans were the same as those approved by Planning Commis- sion at that time. Building Commissioner Conway advised that he would have to use the exact same plans or else he would be required to go back to the Planning Commission, J. Helon moved to grant the request for P4ichael Galati at 27539 Lorain for a special permit to add to a non-conforming building, and that all plans should comply with those submitted April 10, 1986, seconded by T.

Request 7.96 foot frontage variance to assemble remnant parcels into one lot in a"B" Residence, Single, district. Violation of Ord. 87-93, Section 1135.05(a). Referred from Planning Commission January 23, 1990. Also request 10 foot variance to exceed maximum front set back to con- struct single family dwelling. Violation of Ord. 87-93, Section 1135.06. Chairman Bugala called all interested parties before the Board. The oath was administered to Mr. Dunlap who explained that he purchased this property from the State as one garcel, and did not know it had never been assembled. Since the frontage.is 7.96 feet less than the 70 foot required, the Planning Commis- , sion referred the assembly to this Board. He is also requesting a variance to place the house further back than the 70 foot maximum setback, hu* he may put it 75 feet back rather than 80. The members are concerned because there is another lot partially in front of this one. Building Commissioner Conway stated that he would rule that this 1ot faces Hastings Drive and it would ' really be unbuildable since the Board would have to grant excessive variances. Mr. Dunlap stated that he would not put the house directly behind the other lot, and further that the owner of that property had been to the auctions for the property and had. not been willing to buy this property or to negotiate with Mr. Dunlap for part of it. He pointed out that this owner had s,old off the front part of the property but, unlike the other property owners, had re- tained the back portion. Mr. Conway explained that this is an existing con- dition which was not created by,t.the city. J. Helon moved to grant the request of Curt Dunlap for nroperty located on the south side of Hastings Drive adjacent to I-480 for a 7.96 foot frontage variance to assemble remnant parcels into one lot in a"B" Residence, Single, district and the 10 foot variance, not to ex- ceed 80 feet, for the front set back, seconded by R. Gommersall, and unanimously approved. Variances:granted. The members agreed that since the July 4th holiday would fall on. a Wednesday, they will tentatively plan to meet on July llth. The meeting was adjourned at 7:45 p.m. R. Bugala, B. Oring, C1erk of Commissions
