Mr. Peterson, the
applicant, explained his request to the Board.
It was noted that the
applicant had previously obtained a variance from the
Planning Commission to construct a triplex on the property
but the vat?lance has expired,/ The applicant now proposes
to construct a single family residence rather than a triplex.
It was noted that a portion of the block wall has already
been constructed in compliance with the conditims of the
previous variance, Area Variance 709.
It was -also noted that
although Indianapolis Avenue is shown on the Master Planoof
Arterial Streets and Highways, some of the Staff now feels
that a more practical alignment would be down Geneva Avenue
to Hartford Avenue.
Further discussion followed.
It was noted that
even if Indianapolis Avenue remains on the Master Plan of
Arterial Streets and Highways the proposed dwelling will
setback 5 ft. from future right-of-way which is further -
back than most of the eklsting_lhoussa bhctheistreet.
There being no
further comment, the hearing was closed.

other houses in the area have the same setback or are
closer.
