with the following members present:
Mr. Thomas B. Baden, Chairman
Mr. Gordon H. Moyer, Jr.
Mr. Emrys C. Harris
Absent: Mr. Marion B. Arnold
Mr. Donald W. Hoefle
Mr. William R. Bradford, Building and Zoning Director, was
also present.
Minutes of the last meeting were approved as written by motion
made by Mr. Moyer, seconded by Mr. Harris and passed unanimously.
(1) A. request was made by Mr. W. Fields, 160 N. E. 102nd St. ,
Lots 6 & 7, Block 14, Miami Shores Subdivision, for a permit to add a
bedroom and bath to the above residence. The proposed addition is to
a building which is non -conforming because of no setback on the west
property line. After a review of the plan Mr. Moyer moved that approval
be recommended to the Council providing it meets all the building require-
ments. Motion was seconded by Mr. Harris and passed unanimously.
(2) Concerning the next item, Mr. Baden disqualified himself
from participating in the discussion and action as he stated he had an
interest in the sale of the property by Mrs. Chitty. Mr. Baden could not
step down as there would no longer be a quorum present to conduct the
meeting.
A. plan was submitted by Attorney Michael Shoresin behalf
of Mrs. Mary L. Chitty, 469 N. E. 91st Streets, Lots 20, 21 and 22,
Block 49, Miami Shores Sub. , to construct new homes on Lots 20 and 22
which are 50 ft. lots lying immediately east and west of her home which
is on Lot 21. Mr. Shore pointed out that Ordinance No. 288, an amend-
ment to the Zoning Ordinance, regarding minimum lot size, permits building
on 50 ft. lots in this situation.
Mr. William C. Hall, 451 N. E. 91st Street, one of the
neighbors, did not voice any particular objection to a home on the lot
adjoining his home providing a fence is erected on the side facing his patio.
Mr. Otto Brady, the neighbor on the other side, did not appear. Mr. R.
A. Mueller, the broker for this property, stated that the selling price of

homes built on these lots would be .between $25, 000 and $30, 000.
Mr. Jim Townsend, 485 N. E. 92nd St. , stated that the lots
were not offered for sale individually. He added that if Mr. Hall would
buy 25 ft. and Mr. Brady would buy 25 ft. then Mrs. Chitty could sell
her home on the remaining 75 ft. Mr. Townsend stated that the new Metro
code would not permit building on 50 ft. lots and didn't think there was
enough room to meet the septic tank requirements. Mr. Bradford stated
that it would meet the requi rements for a septic tank.
Mr. Harris asked if a survey had ever been made as to the
existing lots that could be divided like this to determine the possible
number of new 50 ft. building sites that might be created. Mr. Bradford
stated that Mr. Markel had made a survey along these lines and that he
would try to locate it.
Mr. Moyer moved ;that the Board table this request until
there is a full Board present. Motion was seconded by Mr. Harris and
passed.
The meeting adjourned at 8:15 P. M.
