Mr. Adkins stated that it was his desire at this time to have Lot 6 width increased to
5 ft. which would put that .lot back to within 5 ft of the original lot which was
100 ft. x 150 ft. He stated that in order to make the replat, a twenty foor rear
yard. had to be provided for the existing house, therefore, because of the location
of the house it-could only be 95 ft. to provide for the required rear yard.

the slab for a garage which had been demolished and that the drivewy was dirt and
that the slab would be demolised he was suxe, during the construction of a new
dwelling. Discussion also pertained to the replatting of Lot 7 and E? of 8 as
they would be effected with the new dimension of Lot 6. Building Inspector Perry

ments.

lots in regard to creation of three buildable sires in the event of the removal
or moving of the existing houses which crosses the common property line between
Lot 7 and the EZ of Lot 8. Members reviewed the application in the context of
the1978 replatting. and the reason for the replatting at this time and why the re-
