Smith, Mr. George Bowen, Mr. Harold Lieberenz and applicants, Mr. C. E. Yerton and Mr. V. F. Yerton and Mr. John Maquire who represented the Evelyn Hills Shopping Center. Absent: Mr. Tom Schiewetz and Mr. J. F. Robinson. M. John I. Smith, chairman, called the meeting to order. The minutes of the last meeting, October 27, 1961, were approved as mailed to all members prior to the meeting. The first application was that of brothers, Mr. C. E. Yerton and Mr. V. F. Yerton. The variation requested by Mr. C. E. Yerton and Mr. V. F. Yerton is for the use of the property located on the west side of Highway 71 South just north of the air port hill. This is located in a R -IA Single Family Residential area until it is rezoned by the City Planning Commission. Mr. Lieberenz stated that the applicants wish to erect one new dwelling behind each of their existing homes. The City Zoning Ordinance generally prohibits a person building in the rear of another house; however Section 3 of Article VI of the City Zoning Ordi- nance No. 1239 does permit this under certain conditions if approved by the Board of Adjustment. Ns. C. E. Yerton and Mr. V. F. Yerton explained what they planned to do. At the present they do not wish to subdivide their land. Incase they should want to subdivide in the future they plan to build the two proposed houses in such a manner that no setback problems would exist and they plan to leave room for a future fifty -foot street. The two proposed houses would be about fifty (50) or sixty (60) feet west from the existing houses. Mr. Lieberenz said the setbacks of the proposed houses complied with the ordinance except they are not located on a platted street. There was no further discussion, and the applicants were dismissed. The second applicant was Mr. John Maquire. The variation requested by Mr. quire to the Zoning Ordinance is for the use of the property located in the Evelyn Hills Shopping Center on North College Avenue. This property is located in a C-2 Thoroughfare Commer- cial District. Mr. Lieberenz told the members the applicant has asked the Board of Adjustment to study and give a ruling on whether or not a dry cleaning shop using non flamable dry cleaning fluid could be placed in the C-2 Thoroughfare Commercial Zone, Ns. Lieberenz read from the Zoning Ordinance the uses permitted in C-1 and C-2. The uses permitted in a C-1 Neighborhood Commercial District will permit only a "pick up station" for dry cleaning. The uses permitted in the C-2 Thoroughfare Commercial District are the same as the Neighborhood Commercial with some other additional uses. There was no further discussion, and the applicant was dismissed. • Mr. Bowen moved that Mr. Maquirefs application requesting to use non flamable liquid 26-2 in a dry cleaning shop be granted. The motion was seconded by Mr. Pennington and passed unanimously. • Mr. Pennington moved that the Board accept Mr. C. E. Yerton and Mr. V. F. Yertonts application.
