The oath was acimivistered to Mr. Limpert, and neighbors Mr. Kall, Mr. and N1rs. Randles, Mr. Kivon, and Mr. Flood. It was clarified that Mr. and Mrs. Randles live behind Mr. Limpert's property and Mr. Flood lives next door. Mr. Limpert stated that the building had been there for 50 years and he had remodeled it so his son could live there. Since he has moved away, they have allowed their family to use it when they visited from out of town. Mr. Gomersall noted that now he was requesting to rent it out, not use it for family. Mr. Limpert stated that lus brother lives there in the summer when he comes back from Florida. He clarified that now he is allowing an employee to live there, and is requesting to rent it out in the future. Mr. Kivron, a neighbor who lives two doors to the north, spoke in favor of the request because Mr. Limpert was a good neighbor and frequently used the heavy equipment that he owns to help out his neighbors, including offering to help Mr. Flood move a bridge that was over a creek. He advised that a feuce and trees had been cut down on his property without his permission, and people had left trash and debris there, but he has never complained. He believed that Mr. Limpert was a good neighbor and was trying to help the girl who is living in the apartment. Mr. Krall objected to having an apartment occupied by non-family members since this area is zoned for single family homes. Mr. Randles agreed. Mr. Flood, who lives next door, advised that when he bought his property, he investigated the zoning hearing mf 1972, and as he understood it, the apartment was an extension of Mr. Limpert's prime residence, only for members of his family. He believes that it is immaterial whether the nurse who is living there is paying rent or not. Mr. Gomersall, W. Maloney, and Mr. Koberna agreed. T.
