Minutes of the last meeting were approved as written by motion made by Mr. Jones, seconded by Mr. Harris and passed. (1) A request was made by Dr. Altman, Chiropractor, for a variance in floor area for a home professional office at 9300 Biscayne Blvd., Lot 5, Block 65, M.S. Sub. By using the present living room and dining room for office space, it would amount to approximately 25%, or 5% of the floor area in excess of the requirement. The enclosed porch will be used as a living area for his family as well as a waiting room. After some discussion, Mr. Jones moved that the Board recommend to the Council that the request be granted to use the living room and dining room as an office since the rooms are already built and allow a 5% overage on the 20% floor allowance. Motion was seconded by Mr. Harris and passed unanimously. (2) A request was made for a sign for Able Books, Inc. having an office in the Theatre Building at 9822 N.
