REVIEWED BY CITY MANAGER:
AGENDA ITEM NO.
Mr. Worley explained to the board that the residence was constructed in 1979
with a site plan indicating that the building would have: 7.5 feet setback from the side
property lines. The actual construction did not agree with the plan, having 0.8 feet on
one side and I I feet on the other side. The survey lot dimensions do not agree with the
site plan measurements which may account for some of the difference.
Mr. Worley corrected his staff report to state that the construction would not
encroach any further than the existing building but his recommendation would not alter.
After discussion, Mr. Frohwein moved to deny the variance and Mr. Wolfson
seconded the motion. After discussion, the motion and second were withdrawn after the
applicant agreed to amend his application to show that the new construction would not
encroach the setback requirements.
After further discussion, Mr. Frohwein moved to grant the variance provided that
the deck addition project no further than five feet from the northeast property line. Mr.
Grunthal seconded the motion and the amended variance was unanimously granted.

their desire to deliver their recommendation to the City Commission within a period of
two or three months. They directed staff to place the item on the agenda for the
upcoming meetings.
Mr. Worley told the board that an extra meeting would probably be necessary to
enable review of landscape and lot coverage ordinances and the definitions contained
therein should be included so as not to have a discrepancy or conflict.
Mr. Frohwein requested copies of the landscape ordinance be furnished to them
so they may include it with their amendment documentations. He also requested copies
of the modifications of definitions previously submitted to the City Commission.
Mr. Grunthal suggested that the amendments be divided into four sections for the
