Mrs. Averbeck seconded the motion which carried with Mr. McLean abstaining. OPEN MIKE - Judy Domning Mrs. Domning appeared before the Board explaining that her home on Birch Street is a single family home with a mother -in -law apartment on the upper floor. The home was built in 1974 with a building permit issued by the former Building Official. The Domnings wish to obtain financing on their home and have been told by the financing institution that their home does not qualify for financing because it is a non - III conforming use due to the mother -in -law apartment. In order to qual- ify for financing, Mrs. Domning asked if the P F Z Board could recom- mend a variance in order to salve the financing problem. • Boardmembers briefly discussed the issue at hand. Chairman Cody then suggested that the Domnings request a letter from the City Administrator which would explain the situation to the financing institution and would hopefully clear up the problem. If this step does not satisfy the financing institution, the Domnings could then return to the P & Z Board.
