Peter Olin, 1958 Summer, requested a variance to construct an addition on his
• home one and one-half feet beyond the setback Iine. Due to the configuration PETER OLIN,
of the rooms in the home, the best location for the addition is as proposed 1958 SUMMER,
which will increase in size the master bedroom, add another bedroom and bath. VARIANCE
Discussion arose on the size of the lot and the criteria which must be examined REQUEST
before a variance is granted. The invasion/encroachment in the setback is very APPROVED
small and the remodeling in that area of the home will cause the least amount
of invasion into the neighborhood.
Barry then moved, seconded by Boche, approval of the variance request for the
following reasons: (1) the lot size is unique and unusual, (2) owner appears
to have attempted to minimize the encroachment into the setback, (3) addition
will not significantly impair Zight and air, and (4) preserves the rights of
the property owner for the best use of his square footage. Motion carried
unanimously.

width of his driveway at the entry to the garage but will keep the width as it VARIANCE
presently exists at the street entrance. He will have to remove .one tree but REQUEST
advised that the present hedge will block the encroachment as seen from the APPROVED
street.
Finegan moved, seconded by Duncan, approval of the variance request for the
following reasons: (1) unique shape of the Iot and placement of the house on
• such lot, and (2) it would create a hardship on the owner not to grant the
variance when compared to other homes in the area. Motion approved unanimously.
