Mr. Hite presented Affidavit of Mailing of "Notice of Hearing" to affected property owners. 7The request is for a 15-foot side yard, whereas Zoning Ordinance re-quires 20 feet. Attorney Hall, representing owner Paul Bawnann, summarized for Council the events leading to request, stating Nr. Baumann had checked with Village Building Inspector before siting his home and had, then,been given permission to place it 15 feet fromllooddale Avenue; that he had accordingly compacted his yard to obtain full utilization of the area; that he had later received a Village Building Permit showing a 15-foot si-de yard setback; that his footings had been inspected and approved, and he had then proceeded with construction; that, if Mr. Baumann could correct, he would, but that this correction would spoil his house plan because he would have to move his garage to the south of the lot, giving a "jerry-built" look to the structure. Council that the neighbors had stopped Mr. Baumann dhen the footings were put in, June 8th recommendation for denial of variance was reviewed by Council; and Mr. Hall told rhembers that Commission had laid some streas on a statement to Chairman Todd that Mr. Bauman would be glad to m6ve his garage--that such statement was unauthorized by Mr. Bauman and he does nofi know where it came from; that owner had no opportunity f6r hearing before the Commission. Wooddale; Scott, #4513 Dunham Drive, and Hillstrom, Claremore Court, all asked that Council require builder to adhere to Ordinance provisions. lfr. Scott stated the owner knew he was in trouble before he went beyond his footings, and Mr. Hillstrom said the variance, if granted, would establish a precedent for this area--which has, heretofore, been well controlled. Kohler's motion, that request for variance be tabled pending a hearing before the Planning Commission, was seconded by Beim and carried, with Dickson voting no; and, upon Mr. Hite's state- ment that there will be a Commission meeting before the Council Meeting of June 27, new Council Hearing on matter was tentatively scheduled for June 27. pointed out in the Hearing that Nr.

Mr.Scroggins, of Bees-Thomson-Scroggins, developer, told Council that deed restrictions provide that dwellings on Lot$ 8, 9 and 10, Block 2 be constructed on the rear 113 feet; that both Planning Commission and Council had been aware of these restrictions and had approved of them at time of plat approval; that topography on front of lots is low and swampy and f'unbuildable'', and that it was intended that homes be situated on rear of lots to afford a view of the lake. 4520 Laguna Drive, objected to the'granting of the variance, stating he does not like the idea of three homes so close to his side lot line; that moving the hoges five feet to the west might require some fill, it would not"be necessary to change the plan of any of the three. dation for approval of variance on lot 8 only, was reviewed; and Dickson moved that Council establish the rear-yard setback of Lot 8, Block 2, lloodhill, at 25 feet and go on record as favoring a 25-foot setback for Lots 9 and 10, Block 2.
