carried unanimously.
(4) Mr. Al Philpott, 1247 N. E. 101st Street, appeared before the Board
for consideration of his plans to get his car off the street by
building a carport on the west side of his home. Mr. Philpott stated
that he has a 16 ft. side setback and the adjoining property has
a similar setback. In order to provide a roof over his car, the
columns would have to be 7.5 ft. from the side lot line. Mr. Stobs
moved that a variance be recommended under the conditions setforth,
that the roof will be a continuation of a hip roof and overhang,
that it be granted in accordance with Section 702 of the Zoning Ordinance,
paragraph (c), to enable the applicant to add a carport with a 7.5 ft.
sideyard setback. The motion was seconded by Mr. Palmer and passed
4/1 with Mr. Toussaint dissenting.
