Sworn
testimony was given by Kathleen McCarthy concerning her desire to have an

located at 6613 Weckerly Drive. Ms.
McCarthy was asked if the patio was in existence when she purchased the home and

it was necessary for her to request this side yard variance in order to have the
patio room constructed. Mr. Peinert
made a motion to grant a side yard variance of two feet (2’) and a variance to
enlarge a non-conforming structure. Motion
was seconded by Leroy Ryerson, motion passed 4-0.

on to his existing residence located at 6341 N. Texas Street.

only a 25’ front yard set back (35’ is the required front set back).
Mr. Kuharchek wants to construct a bedroom addition on the side of the
house even with the existing front building line, thus enlarging an existing
non-conforming structure. Leroy
Ryerson made a motion to grant a ten foot (10’) variance to the front yard set
back and to allow the enlargement of an existing non-conforming structure.
Seconded by Robert Peinert, motion passed 4-0.
With no further business before the Board, Mr. Werner moved to adjourn, seconded by Mr. Peinert. All voted yea and the meeting was adjourned at 8:00 p.m.
