Tf structure is placed in rear yard as re- qui:red in Ord. 83--154, Section 1367.03, the applicant proposes the height to exceed the maximum of 15' as required in Section 1367.06 or as an alternative, a variance is required to place satellite dish in sideyard contrary to Section 1367.03. (Continued from meeting of September 26, 1985) (Continued from the meeting of October 24th, because of no quorum) Building Commissioner Gundy has reviewed the parking and the parking will still conform to code with the dish installed in a parking space. The oath was admi.nistered to Mr. David Shumbach who presented literature pertaining to satellite dish earth stations. He explained that there was no place that they could install the dish without being in violation of the code. This location will be below the adjacent fence, behind the trees, between two commercial buildings, and is the location that the neighbors had pre- ferred. (No neighbors were present at this meeting but had been in Sep= tember and at the cancelled meeting:) He.pointed out that this is a resi- dential size dish. Mr. Schulz is concerned because of the possibility of a proliferation of these dishes at other electronic stores and that variances would be requested at other locations. Ida Petko, also representing Curtis Mathes, was sworn in at this point. She explained that Curtis Mathes did their own installation and that their plans had been approved by state engineers in other locations. She explained that this location was pre- ferable to other locations mentioned. They stated that having a dish on the premises was necessary in order to demonstrate the hands on experience of the remote control and the quality andscop?e of the picture. They advised that in this area, even with the newer technology this size dish is neces- sary, later on a smaller dish would be adequate. This dish is also capable of receiving from allsatellites after they are placed closer together as
