(1) Mr. John Looby requested permit to build on. Lot 18,
Block 1, Watersedge Sub., a 50 ft. lot. Previous attempts had been
made to secure more land but failed. Because the plans indicated no
garage or car port and a gravel roof, the Planning Board did not think
this type of construction should be accepted in the Shores. Mr. Harris
then moved that the plans be approved subject to a tile roof and car port.
Motion was seconded by Mr.. Moyer and passed unanimously.
(2) Mr. Dan Crane requested a variance on the front setback
of a house to be built on the N. W. corner of 101st St. and Miami Ave.,
a portion of Lots 10 and 11, Block 1, Hamilton Terrace. Mr. Crane wanted
to have a 20 ft. front set back sa that the back yard will be large enough
for a swimming pool. The Planning Board would not allow a change in
the front set back. Further action was postponed for two weeks so that
the Board has an opportunity to view the location and Mr. Crane has an
opportunity to revise his plans for the property.
(3) The owner of the Detroit Efficiencies was present to
request permit to. erect .a sign 4 x 6 ft. between the office and the street.
Mr. Moyer moved that the sign area of the_ building be checked and find
out how much could be allowed for an additional signbefore passing on
this. Motion was seconded by Mr. Harris who suggested that the Board
take a look at this location and it was passed unanimously.
