Motion Carried
Director Thatcher explained that Ronald O 'Connell, 4. Residents
2296 Terrace Drive, would like to construct a bedroom Requests and
addition to the back of his home. The existing Comments from
structure is only 14 ' from the property line, with the the Floor
present code requiring a 30 ' sideyard setback. He
stated the hardship could be that the house pre-existed
the present zoning code.
Chairman Mountin noted this would continue a non-
conforming condition and would not necessarily consti-
tute a hardship. She stated that uniqueness must be
established for this particular request.
After discussion among the Commissioners , it was agreed
that a hardship could be found in the uniqueness of how
the neighborhood was constructed, with 14 ' setbacks.
