BOARD ACTION: (7-19-82) The applicant was present, and there were no objectors. The applicant stated that the purpose in opening the driveway to Rebsamen Park Road was to permit her to drive forward into the carport and to exit by driving forward as well. There was considerable discussion about having the carport extend all the way to the property line because of the prospect in the future of receiving an application for a similar carport from the neighbors to the south. The Board moved to defer the application to the August 16 meeting to allow further study of the problem. the motion passed - 4 ayes, 0 noes, 3 absent.

He also brought along pictures of the property showing some of the features that were discussed in the earlier meeting relative to fences and proximity of property lines and driveways, etc. There was a lengthy discussion of the proposal, and the Board of Adjustment attempted to find some compromise position on this project, such as relocating the proposed carport and other kinds of similar changes. There seemed to be no room for change, the applicant insisting that the proposal was the only reasonable way to accomplish the project. After this lengthy discussion, the Board moved to deny the application, and the motion passed: 6 ayes, 0 noes and 1 absent.
