BZA 78-5, RONALD D. MUIR
The first order of business was for the Board of Zoning
Adjustments to consider BZA 78-5 submitted by Mr. Ronald
D. Muir.
Mr. Muir explained that he had built a 101 X 14' storage
building that encroached by four feet (4') on the side yard
building line. He advised that several trees would bec-lost
if the building had to be moved. He further stated that
the building was on blocks rather than on a foundation.
The City Secretary read into the record a letter received
from Mrs. K. E. Foglesong advising that she was not opposed
to the requested variance.
Mr. Bruce Slocum, 932 Lucas, was in attendance and expressed
opposition to the request. He stated that he felt two feet
(2') between the building and fence would create a maintenance
problem. He added that the size and location of the building
caused an unsightly view from his back yard. Mr. Slocum
then submitted pictures of the building and area in question.
Member Tommy Zimmerer asked Mr. Muir why he did not build the
structure on the north side of his yard. The applicant
answered there was a clothes line on that location.
There being no further pertinent discussion from guests
present, Acting Chairman Spencer declared the public
hearing closed.
Following a short discussion among board members, member
Tommy Zimmerer made a motion to grant the variance requested.
The motion was seconded by Member James Buckner and failed
by the following vote:
Ayes: Zimmerer, Cox, and Buckner
Nays: Spencer
Absent: Harper and Woods
Note: To approve a motion before the Board of Zoning
Adjustments, there must be four members voting
