In the absence of Mr. Robinson, Carl Yates served as chairman of this
meeting which was called to give further consideration to the Helen
Edmiston application presented to the Board April 27, 1970,
Harold Lieberens explained that he had met with Ms 0. Raspberry,
owner of the property, for which Helen Edmiston applied for a HELEN EDMISTON
variance. The plot plan has been revised in a way which he thinks
will be acceptable.
Mr. Raspberry has agreed to give one foot off the South aide of his
property to the.property awnere to the South. This should settle
the property line question. He also agreed to set the buildings
on the South 5 feet from the South property line and will need no
variance on that matter. He further agreed to omit the front yard
parking from the site plan. The site plan was also altered by
omitting units A-4 and A-5, and turning units A-6. A-7, and A -B
to face West and connect A -B to A-9. Units A-1, A-2, and A-3 are
• to be located with the firewall 25 feet from the front property line.
As amended the variances requested are for a group housing project,
to be permitted to locate the firewalls on the East -'19 feet from the
rear property line, and a variance for a shortage of 400 square feet
in lot area.
Mr. Lieberens stated arrangements have been made with the City Street
Department to survey the alley to see whether it can be widened arW
further. The developer is going to cut these lots down to slope their
parking off the alley. Mr. Lieberens showed photographs of the type
of garbage receptacles planned.
Roy Clinton moved that the Board accept the request as amended and as
shown on the revised site plan, that the Board grant a variance for
a rear yard setback of 19 feet, the 400 square feet lacking in lot
area be waived, and the group housing petition be granted. J. F. Palmer
