approved. Variance Granted W/Condition 7/5/01. 6. Jack Perrella; 4455 Brendan L,ane: Request for variance (1123.12). The proposal consists of an addition to existing home. The following variance is requested: A 23 foot variance for required rear yard setback, (code requires 50 ft., applicani shows.27 ft.). Which is in violation of Ord. 90-125 section, (1135.08 A). Chairman Maloney called all interested parties forward to review the request. The oath was administered to Jack & Deborah Perrella, the owners, Pattie & Tom Stipek, neighbors at 4441 Brendan Ln., whom all came forward to review the request. Mr. Perella indicated that they are putting an addition on their house and it is going to make their back yard a lot smaller, but they want this addition. Mrs. Perrella commented that they have had three contractors come out and give their different opinions as to where exactly to place this addition. Each of the contractors suggested placing the addition off the dinin; room, which is right next to the Stipek's home. Mr. Konold questioned if the contractors were all for this drawing they are looking at tonight. Mrs. Perrella replied no, but they did all suggest placing it on that side. Mr. 1Vlaloney questioned if the Stipek's had comments or questions. Mr. Stipek suggested that they had discussed all their concerns with the Perella's and was present for moral support. They have a sick baby and they were worried about the noise problems. Mrs. Perrella indicated that they were going to have their builder come and talk to them to see if there is anyway to keep the noise at a minimum. Mr. Koberna indicated that he is concerned with the actual physical size of it. You are only going to have 27 ft. from the back of the addition to the rear lot Iine. There are some swing sets and whatnot off your property in the backfield. If that property is ever sold off and you have to bring all this stuff back into your yard, it will really squeeze things in there. Mr. Koberna commented that the one tree is going to have to come down. Mrs. Perrella indicated yes, they would be taking that tree down. Mr. Rymarczyk indicated that if they brought the shed back onto their property then they would probably have to come to this board for a variance. The Building Department takes into account the percentage of rear yard that is being used for determining the size of shed allowed and the applicant is really crunching it quite a bit. Mrs. 1'errella indicated that they were thinking about putting the addition off the family room, but the family room part of the house is on a slab and it is too hard to tie into the utilities there. Mr. Maloney indicated that he is concerned with them having a wall the length of their property and he would be more in favor of turning it to run parallel with the back of the house. Mrs. Perrella suggested that would block her view from the kitchen window and she needs to be able to keep an eye on her kids. Mr. Koberna again suggested that the wall is huge and there is nothing to break that up. Mr. Kelly questioned if the property behind them was land Iocked. Mrs. Perrella indicated that she is not positive, but neighbors have told her that. Mr. Gareau indicated that Mr. Klingman owns the land and the problem is that on the south end there is no means of access. There is very little build-able property on the west side and there is no means of ingress or egress on Clague Road, because of all the houses. The applicant would not have enough side yard if they put a street in. There is just not enough land to build on. They tried to come through and develop it, but it was turned down by the Planning Commission and Board of Zoning Appeals many years ago. 1VIr. Maloney called for a motion. _ W. Kremzar motioned to grant 7ack Perrella of 4455 Brendan Ln. his request for variance (1123.12).

Which is in violation of Ord. 90-125 section, (1135.08 A). The motion was seconded by T. Koberna. Roll call on the motion: T. Kelly, J. Konold, "yes", W. Kremzar, T. Koberna, and J. Maloney "no".
