APPLICATION BZA 78-2
The next order of business was for the Board of Zoning Adjust-
ments to consider BZA Application 78-2 submitted by Grapevine
Properties, Inc.
The City Secretary explained that a ten foot (10t) rear yard
variance had been requested for Lot 3, Block 2 of the Vineyard,
(or #3 Echo Cove). Mr. Max Holderby was then introduced to
make his presentation.
Mr. Holderby provided copies of the proposed house plan
explaining that deed restrictions required a minimum of 2000
sq. feet of living space. He advised that because of the
extreme curvature of the lot, eight percent of the house
would infringe on the 251 rear yard requirements.
Member Charlie Cox stated that since the lot backed up to a
platted green belt area that a hardship would not be created
for adjacent property owners.
After a short discussion, Member Charles Cox made a motion
to grant the 101 rear yard variance on Lot 3, Block 2 of the
Vineyard as requested. The motion was seconded by Member
Jerry Spencer and prevailed by the following vote:
Ayes: Buckner, Zimmerer, Woods, Cox and Spencer
Nays: None
Absent: A. J. Harper
Following the formal meeting, a miscellaneous discussion
centered around the need to organize proper procedures
leading toward a meeting before the Board of Zoning Adjust-
ments. A new application form was also discussed. It was
determined that an organizational meeting would be held on
August 30, 1978 at 5:00 p.m.
There being no further business, Member Jesse Woods made a
motion to adjourn. The motion was seconded by Member Charles
Cox and prevailed by the following vote:
Ayes: Buckner, Zimmerer, Woods, Cox and Spencer
Nays: None
Absent: A. J. Harper
PASSED AND APPROVED on this the day of 9 1978.
