Request 7 foot location variance from rear property line to replace detached garage. Violation of Ord. 90-125, Section 1135.02(c)(2). (Note: variance granted for front porch 11/5/92) Chairman Gomersall called all interested parties before the board. The oath was administered to Mr. and Mrs. Blagg and Mr. and Mrs. Weaver, their next door neighbors who had sent a letter objecting the variance on the basis that it would detract from the attractiveness and market value of their property; that a 3 feet distance between the garage and the rear property line does not provide sufficient space for storing garbage cans, etc.; and it would place the garage out of aligrunent of other garages. Mr. Gomersall had visited the site and could not Lmderstand their objections since this variance would place the garage close to the shopping center fence, further away from their property, and would not break up the lot as much. The Weavers believed that there would be too much cement. The members had visited the site and did not believe this garage was out of line with the others. Mr. Gomersall believed that a new garage would enhance the Weaver's property. Building Commissioner Conway advised tha.t there was an error on the agenda and the figures were reversed, they would be 3 foot off the line and would need a 7 foot variance. W. Purper moved to grant the 7 foot location variance from the rear property line to replace detached garage for James and Nancy Blagg, 4665 Fleharty, seconded by T. Koberna, and unan;mously approved.
