Mr, Dallas was present, and he stated that he now has a 70 x 1501
lot. He has been living in his home there for the past four years, He
wants to build another home on the front of the lot, He was asked how he
intends to use the one he is in now if he is granted permission for the
waiver. He replied that he wants to use it as a spare bedroom, but he
hasn't definitely decided. He plans to tear out the wall to his present
house and screen it in. Mr. Marak wanted to know if he would tear down his
existing structure, Mr. Dallas said he wasn't willing to tear it clown. It
would involve considerable expense. It is concrete block and about five or
six years old. It would cost $1500 to replace.
Several oring property owners ware ;resent to voice their
objections. They presented a protest petition signed by four owners. Mr,
William Nickell, 2605 forth Hayes, was the spokesman for the group. He
stated they don't object to his building a residence if he doesn't rent
the one he is in now, They like Mr. Dallas as a neighbor, but if he should
ever sell the property they, of course, woo-- dn't know who would move there
and how it would be used. Mr. Tarlw,,-ski told Mr. Nickell the Commission
couldn't police it. It Would be up to Mr. Dallas hoer it would be used.
Mr. Baldwin made a motion it be denied; seconded by Mr. Marak. The
motion carried.

buildings on part of two lots.
Dr, Friedmm was present and he stated that on the property now
is a grocery store built up to the sidewalk and an abandoned service station
- 2 -
being used by a cleaning agency. He wants to use that particular corner to
'Mild a. dental clinic. He would like to build up to the sidewalk which
would be parallel to an existing brick structure and run along the sidewalk
on Dock Street. I'm woii1d have off-ptreet parking, Mr. Marak suggested to
him that if he had%arounded front on tha cor°:er it might eliminate traffic
hazards. Dr. Friedman said he had thought about having his front entrance
at that corner and rounding it off, but he was just working on some ideas
and had nothing definite.
Mr. Marak made a motion it be granted; seconded Uy Mr. Baldwin.
The notion carried„

Normandy Addition; zoned "A" One -Family; requesting
.,ra.iver of lot area, side yard space, and two buildinsgen
one and one-half lets.
Mr. Sam Laser, att:-rney, represented the applicant. He stated that
Mr. Collie has an option to purchase the property. Lot 118 has a total
frontage of 97.2' and Lot 117 has a 61 easement dedicated immediately down
the center of lot. He remarked that it is most suitable for building two
horses at a cost of about $16,000 each, There would be 5' from each lot
line, and one driveway area of 161 between the two homes. They would have
31 off of each side line leaving 51 instead of 89. They have a walkway and
utility easement.
There were several nei+;K-bring 1��ronerty owners present who objected

W. White, 112 Normandy Road; and Dr. :t, J. Calcote, 111 (Dr.
Calcote was unable to be at the hearing, but one of the gentleman spoke for
him.) All of these gentlemen had the,same opinion stating that two houses
on such a small area would be detrimental and decrease the value of their
property. Also it would be toe crowded for two houses, and 14rr, Carroll said
that he would buy the pr=sporty rather than have two houses there. Mr.
Tarlowski wanted to know if there was amything in the Bill of Assurance
prohibiting two houses on one lot. No one was sure about it, but Mr, Laser
didnVt think them, was.
Mr. Marsk rode a motion it be denied; seconded by Mr. Baldwin. The
