D. replace the ten square feet of broken sidewalk and construct a driveway in accord- ance with City standards and specifications but it would not be necessary to pave the street as it would be a great expense to the applicant. Counc~lm~ Markel withdrew his second and Councilman Gould withdrew his motion. On motion of Councilman Markel, seconded by Gould and carried, the matter was continued until the next regular meeting. Coemmmication was read from the Planning Commission recnmme, nding approval of Variance Application No. 1085 filed by Ralph C. Anderson to permit moving of exist- ing nursery business back 75 feet to comply with dedication of land right-of-way and widening of Seventeenth Street, and at the same time create off-street parking space and expand existing building facilities; and to erect a sign, 50 square feet in size, to lie flat against the building or on top of building, on property situated at 1222 East Seventeenth Street, in R-2 District. The applicant protested the condition requiring construction of sidewalk but stated he would dedicate the property and bear the expense of curb and gutter. The Council having unanimously waived the reading of the Resolution, on motion of Counc1~m~n Gould, seconded by Hubbard and carried, the following Resolution entitled: "Resolution No. 59-67 granting Variance on Application No. as recommended by the Planning Conmission by deleting one condition" was considered and passed by the following vote: Ayes, Councilmen Royal E. Hubbard, Stanley C. Gould, Jr., A. A. Hall, J. Ogden Markel, Dale H. Heinly Noes~ Councilm~n None Absent, Councilmen None Cnmmunication was read from the Planning Commission recoam~nding denial of Variance Application No. 1078 filed by Carl K. Pearlm~n~ M.D. to enlarge existing medical building, deleting portions of the yard requirements on the south side of the property for a distance of 16 feet at the east end of building and 32 feet at west end of building, on property situated at 1518 North Sycamore Street, in R-3 District. Attorney Robert Jacobs, on behalf of Mrs. ~m~a Childers, objected to the Variance as it would be detrimental to his client's building depriving the tenants of sufficient light in the offices. Attorney Milford W. r~hl, representing the appli- cant, presented the Council with copies of the plot plan, a letter from Carl D. Cronin, D.D.S., stating he has no objection to the Variance Application; also, a letter from Dr. Pearlman advising that the Variance Application to extend his build- ing on the rear portion of the property is withdrawn and the only portion on which a Variance is requested is the extension of a small front section. Attorney Milford W. Dahl explained that Mrs. Childers and Dr. Pearlm~an operate a joint parking lot and the construction to the rear of the property would eliminate some parking area; the applicant has a problem so far as storage space is concerned, and this area is being devoted to professional use. Attorney Robert Jacobs stated Mrs. Childers constructed her building after Dr. Pear~ma~ the overb-~g of the roof goes up to about i foot of the property line but adhered to the 5 foot set-back line; does not believe this application shows grounds for a Variance as there is no hardship upon the land and it is purely a personal acconm~dation requested by the applicant. On motion of Colznc~lm~n Hall, seconded by Markel and carried, the reccmm~endation of the Planning Commission was approved and the Variance denied. Roll C~] Ayes, Counc~n Royal E. Hubbard, A. A. Hall, J. Ogden Markel Noes, Councilmen St-nley C. Gould, Jr., Dale H. Heinly Absent, Councilmen None
