Linda Kenneclv, 3374 West 231Street, WRD 2 Request for variance (1123.12). The proposal consists of installing a swimming pool in rear yard. The following variance is requested: 1. A 105 square foot variance for swimming pool (code permits 728 sq. ft., applicant shows 833 sq. ft.) Which is in violation of Ord. 90-125 sections (1135.02 (d)(2)). Chairman Maloney called all interested parties forward to be sworn in and review the request. Ms. Kennedy came forward to address the board. She indicated her yard is 22x80 and she would like to put in an oval pool that is 12x24 and above ground. Mr. Kelly asked for confirmation on the measurements. Ms. Kennedy said the yard is 22x80 and that is what Litehouse Pools has indicated. Mrs. Sergi pointed out the numbers do not add up. The driveway is not a double drive all the way back. The board and applicant reviewed the plans. Mrs. Sergi said there is no way there is 7 feet between the fence and where the pool would be; it would not fit with the numbers provided. Ms. Kennedy indicated she measured the width herself and it is 22 feet. Mrs. Serai said that is to the widest part of the driveway. She said even if it was 22 feet across and the pool was 12, it would not leave her 11 feet. The drawing is not right. Ms. Kennedy said she did not do the drawing. Mr. Kelly said they do not know then what they are looking at. Mr. Kelly asked if they should get the proper drawing before voting. Mr. Rymarczyk reviewed the figures with the board members. Mr. Konold asked if the building department has objections to the proposal. Mr. Rymarczyk said there are no objections. He said they are here for the square foot variance. Mr. Kremzar asked the applicant if she has a secondary plan for a smaller pool. Ms. Kennedy said a 12 foot round pool is the smallest she could go with. That is why she picked the oval, because the lawn is deep. It would seem to fit better. W. Kremzar made a motion to grant Linda Kennecfy, 3374 VVest 231St St., the request for variance which consists of installing a swimming pool in rear yard and that the following variance be granted: 1. A 105 square foot variance for swimming pool (code permits 728 sq. ft., applicant shows 833 sq. ft.) Which is in violation of Ord. 90-125 sections (1135.02 (d)(2)). The motion was seconded by T.
