CALL TO ORDER
The meeting was called to order by Chairman Buckner.
BZA APPLICATION 81-1, EARL LYNN & JOHN SMITH
The first order of business was for the Board of Zoning
Adjustments to consider Application 81-1, submitted by
Earl Lynn and John Smith.
Chairman Buckner then administered the Oath of Truth to
applicant Earl Lynn and guest Kenneth McWaters. It was
stated that the applicants were requesting a ten foot (101)
variance in the thirty foot (30') front yard requirement
and a twenty-five foot (251) variance in the twenty-five
(251) rear yard requirement on Lot Nine (9), Block one
(1), Grapevine Lake Estates or 3547 Redbird Lane.
Mr. Lynn then reviewed the site plan and explained the
terrain of the property in question. It was noted that
the rear of the lot abutted U.S. Corp property and that
the lot abutting the eastern edge of the property was of
such elevation that would probably prohibit future develop-
ment.
A lengthy discussion then ensued concerning access to the
property in question. The Board was advised that Redbird
Lane (extending in a northeastward direction) did not meet
Redbird Lane (extending east and west) on the southwestern
edge of the property as shown on the map provided. Sub-
division plats of Placid Peninsula and Grapevine Lake Estates
were then introduced which clearly indicated that Redbird Lane
did not connect between the two subdivisions.
A guest, Mrs. Ruth Matheson then advised the Board that she
would express no objections to the requested variances, but
wanted to make certain that access to Lot Nine was not ob-
tained by encroaching on her property. (Lot 1, & west one-
half of Lot 2, Block 2, Grapevine Lake Estates)
There being no other guests to speak and no further discussion
from the Board, Member Charles Cox made a motion to grant the
variance as requested providing for a zero rear yard requirement;
providing for a twenty foot front yard; and further providing
that the partial subdivision plats of Grapevine Lake
Estates & Placid Peninsula, as introduced, be made a
part of the record of the application. The motion was
seconded by Member Jerry Spencer and prevailed by the
following vote:
Ayes : Buckner, Woods, Cox, Lamb, & Spencer
Nays : None
Absent: Thompson
CONSIDERATION OF THE MINUTES
The next order of business was for the Board of zoning
Adjustments to consider the Minutes of December 4, 1980.

Spencer made a motion to waive the reading of the Minutes
and approve them as published. The motion was seconded by
Vice -Chairman Woods and prevailed by the following vote:
Ayes : Buckner, Woods, Cox, Lamb, & Spencer
Nays : None
Absent: Thompson
