Docket No. 1-52 - Biddle Baptist Church, (by Raymond
Strickland, 2601 Welch Street, described as lots 20
and 21, block 1, Watkins Addition) zoned "B" Residence
District; requesting waiver of yard space in order to
move old building and attach to the rear of the new
building.
Mr. Strickland was present and stated that he would like a waiver
of yard space in order to move the old building on the lot and attach
it to the rear of the new building. His property is adjoined to pro-
perty which is zoned "F" Commercial. He said that there was just room
for the building to be attached to the new building. His new building
is still under construction. The board members studied the sketch which
was attached to Mr. Stricklands petition. There were no protests.
Mr. Marak made a motion that the petition be granted; seconded by
Mr. Baldwin. The motion carried.

There was some discussion on a petition which had been filed in the
City Planning Commission meeting by the Oakland Cemetery. The board
discussed whether the petition might be a matter for the Board of Ad-
justment. Since the Cemetery wanted to use a portion of its property
for a Drive -In Theater temporarily in order to raise funds which they
need badly, the Board felt that it might be a matter for them rather
than the Planning Commission. Hot'revar, it was decided after some length*
discussion that the petition should be allowed to go before the Full Com-
mission for further action and in the mean -time the Board of Adjustment
members were going to check definately so see if they had the power to
act on the petition without the property having to be rezoned since it
is just for temporary use.
A letter from the City Attorney concerning alterations on non-
conforming buildings was also read and discussed among the members.
The meeting was adjourned.
