The oath was administered. P1r. Holson, a neighbor, objected to the ap- pearance of the shed roof on the garage. He has no objection to the size. The line of the roof could be continued from the existing roof if the garage door were lowered. Since this addition is not to be used for a car, a garage door is not necessary and the doorway can be lower.ed. C.

Graves, and unanimously approved. Variance granted. 12. West Shore Cable TV, 15990 Lorain Rd. ? Request for variance (1133.13).

Chairman Remmel called all interested parties before the Board. The oath was administered. It was explained that there had been an ex- tremely high amount of vandalism, mainly to cars and trucks. They are now requesting this variance to protect their electronic equip- ment worth $200,000. They have been advised that it would cost over $5,000 to install burglar alarms on the fence arid were also advised that the barbed wire would be a less expensive option. No- damage has been done to the equipment as yet. The fence is not visable from any home. There was no drawing of how the barbed wire is to be installed and no representative o[ the fence company was present. Mr. Douglas Miller, a scout leader and Councilwoman Petrigac representing several people in her ward, were protesting the barbed wire, but not the height of the fence. Mr'. Remmel had been notified of two other objections to the barbed wire. Law Dir- ector M. Gareau stated that there was no attractive nuisance law in Ohio and there would be no liability for West Shore in case of an accident. It was suggested that an 8' fence which was angled at the top might be just as much.:of a deterent. The Board agreed to meet on July 15th, and reques'?ed that the fence company be present with complete plans for the installation of the fence and barbed wire. 13. Ream Builders, Inc.
