(2) A request was made for a variance to construct a flat roof addition on the home of Mr. & Mrs. Davis Bernstein, 306 N. E. 102nd Street, which will exceed 15% of the roof area of the original structure. Mr. Brooks L. Clark, landscape architect, presented the plans and explained that the proposed addition cannot be accomplished in any other way.

After consideration of factors concerning the lot size, Mr. Moyer moved that the Board recommend to the Council a 2-2 ft, variance allowing a 10 ft. setback from the pool wall to the lot line, due to the hardship of the case caused by the shape of the lot.
