Chairman Gomersall called all interested parties before the board. The oath was administered to Mr. Heim and Mrs. Gross, the neighbor next door next to the addition. Mrs. Gross believed that this request will devalue her property and noted that there is enough roon on the other side of the garage for the addition. She also thought that this will make her drainage problems worse. The raembers did not agree that this would cause a drainage problem and that it would not devalue the property. Mr. Grace and Mr. Gomersall believe that there would be ample room in the back for an addition. Mre Grace thought that 2 feet would cause a safety hazard in case of a fire since it would be difficult to get around. Mr. Maloney believed that the rain will flow down on to the neighbors property and there would not be enough room to maintain that side. Mr.. Heim believed that this setback area is wasted space. Mr. Heim asked if he could reduce it to a 2 foot variance. Neither Mr. Maloney nor 14r. Grace could agree to this since there is so much property in the rear. J. Nlaloney moved to gran)- Thomas E.
