Motion was seconded by Mr. Astor and passed. (1) Mrs. Vincenzio Pellegrino of 144 N. E. 91st St. , requested that the Village do something to alleviate a drainage problem existing in front of her home. Mrs. Pellegrino had purchased rock for" surfacing a circular drive in the front yard but had not completed the job pending Village assistance on the drainage and raising the sidewalk. The situation of the appearance of the property is further complicated by neighborhood complaints concerning two non -conforming garage apartments in the rear, and an old car abandoned in the rear yard. Attorney Joe Ludick stated that Mrs. Pellegrino will get rid of the old car and that she wants to fix the place up along with a new side- walk if something is done about the drainage. It was pointed out by the Board that the drainage problem and the rental problem were two different issues and that the Board wanted clarification of its authority to act in either case. Mr. Astor moved that the Board defer action on this request until we have asked for an opinion of the Village Attorney as to what action we can take under the terms of the ordinance with respect to these issues. The motion was seconded by Mr. Denham and passed unanimously. (2) Request by Mr. Dan Schmidt to build on Lot 22, Block 99, • Miami Shores Sub.

E. 96th St. , had been notified of this request. It was reported that Mr. Camp was not interested in selling any part of his 150 ft. of land and his son, Dr. Camp, was present to add that Mr. Camp had no objection to this home providing the proper setback was made between the two properties. The Building Director reported • • 6/10/71 -2- that the plan met the cubic content requirements as well as setback require- ments.
