•Mr. Boss the owner came forward to be sworn in and address the request. Mr. Boss indicated that he
<br />was present to ask for a variance which was granted once but expired. Mrs. Sergi was concerned that a
<br />fence should be placed along the back for safety reasons. Mr. Boss advised that if he placed a fence on
<br />his lot then the pedestrians cutting through his lot would just start cutting through his abutting neighbors
<br />lots. Mrs. Sergi felt that the variance was substantial enough to the neighbors that a fence should be
<br />erected. Mr. Maloney advised that Planning & Design Commission recommended the variance be
<br />granted.

<br />variance (1123.12), and that the following variance is granted: 1. A 30 foot variance for rear yard

<br />needed.

<br />Frezel reviewed that they were granted variances for the signage on the site in the past, but due to a11
<br />new signs being used the variances are no longer valid. There would be 1 wall sign on the back of the
<br />building and 1 in the front of the building. He assured the board that the directional sign would not say
