ITEM #2 REQUEST FOR APPROVAL OF VARIANCE TO PERMIT RE -ROOF WITH
COMPOSITION SHINGLES Stanley F. Whitman 1234 N.E. 94 Street
Mr. LuBien explained that the applicant has submitted a letter from an engineer as to the structure
of the roof. Mr. LuBien noted that the original plans for the house contained a conflict as to the
roof covering. The plans call for white cement shingle tile. However, on the elevation, it calls for
an asbestos shingle roof. In 1966, the house was re -roofed with asphalt shingles. Mr.
Christopher Kelley, the attorney for the applicant was present. He stated that the home was
designed and built for asphalt shingles.
Mr. LuBien stated that the basis for the variance should be whether the roof can support a tile
roof. Mr. Stanley Whitman confirmed that the roof has been asphalt shingle since the house was
built. Mr. Blum noted that generally the engineer's letter should include the total weight that the
roof can support.
