Fred O'Baugh, Applicant for Variation
Ruth Anne Grisso, Secretary
The Chairman called the meeting to order and asked the Secretary to
read the Minutes of the meeting held January 29, 1953. They were
approved as read. Mr. Fred OtBaugh, applicant for variation to the
Zoning Ordinance presented his case. His property at 969 Rush Drive
lies in the "A" Zone. He is desirous of erecting a carport to the
side of his property which will be three and one-half feet from the
property line instead of the five feet the Zoning Ordinance requires.
His reasons for seeking the variation are to save the expense cf:fur-
ther alterations to his house, an additional Building permit and re -
terracing a portion of his property.
Mr. O'Baugh stated that the adjacent property belonged to Utley and
..� Company and he was told by Mr. Jasper Pyeatt that he was not opposed
to the proposed carport. The Chairman reminded the Board that its
function was to hold to the purposes of zoning for the value of the
community regardless of agreements between property owners, unless
an actual hardship or prohibition of reasonable use of land was in-
volved.
Mr. Young said it appeared to him that the carport could be erected
five feet from the line and the members of the Board felt an examina-
tion of his site would be necessary to make a fair determination. Mr.
Crocker then moved that the hearing be postponed to Thursday, March
5th and that the Board make an examination of the site in the interim.
Mr. Young seconded the motion and roll was called:
