File ~ 90-03. Phyllis Mitchell, 520 3rd Ave.
Mrs. Mitchell spoke on behalf of her application to build an
addition onto her house at a 5 foot setback instead of the
required 20 foot setback.
Mrs. Mitchell states that her house is very small, and she would
like to have a 16~ X 18' addition built that would be used for
a bathroom and bedroom. Her house is set back 5' from the
property line, as are most of the other homes in the area. If
the addition were built at the required 20' setback it would
only be a 5 foot wide room, which wouldn't be useable.
Joe states that all the houses in that area are setback 5' because
that was what was required when the houses were built. Mrs.
Mitchell estimates the house being built in the 1940's.
Cal states that he can't recommend approval because it is going
against the codes, but on the other hand he hates to discourage
anyone from making an improvement to their home.
Bruce Teeters states that Mrs. Elsie Johnston, 561 3rd Avenue,
is unable to attend the meeting but did s~ate that she and several
of the neighbor's have talked about Mrs. Mitchell's request and
have no problem with it.
Motion by Marvin Carter, seconded by Bob Western, that the
application be approved. Motion carried 5--0.
Respectfully submitted,
Cheryll Lund, Secretary
