A request from Mrs. C. W. Heath for permission to resubdivide Lot 7, Block 13,

letter that the 100x200 Ft. lot had been subdivided in 19+8 into two lots of
100x108 Ft. and 92x100 Ft. but due to certain improvements since that date it
was now desired to resubdivide the lots 100x113 Ft. and 87x100 Ft. Mrs.
Heath desired to grant a 5' easement for utility purposes off the rear of
the 87 Ft. lot.
Motion. by Mr. Halbert, seconded by Mr. Hannah that the Board recommend re-
subdivision of Lot 7, Block 13, West University Place 1st Addition into two
lots, 100 x 113' and 87 x 100' as requested subject to the 5' easement being
granted across the rear of the 87' lot, which will be the southern boundary
of the lot, in order that the existing residence on the 113' west portion of
the lot might continue to be served with necessary utilities.

Mr. David Bland requested permission to subdivide Lot 6, Block 3S, West Uni-
versity Place 1st Addition located at the corner of Mereer and Pittsburg into
two 50 x 130.25' lots to front on Mercer Street. Mr. Bland advised that it
was his intent to move the house presently located on the lot to the E2 of
Lot 7, Block 35, West University Place 1st Addition.
Motion by Mr. Hannah, seconded by Mr. Halbert that the Board recommend ap-
proval of the resubdivision of Lot 6, Block 35, West University Place 1st
Addition into two 50 x 130.25' lots to front on Mercer Street as requested by

A letter from Mr. Thomas Elliott requesting permission to build a residence
containing 800 square feet instead of 1200 Sq. Ft. on S2 of Lot 11, Block 35,
West University Place 1st Addition which is located 100' north of Carnegie
Street and fronting the Poor Farm Ditch was again considered by the Board and
the following action taken:
Motion by Mr. Hannah, seconded by Mr. Halbert that the request of Mr. Thomas
Elliott for permission to erect a residence containing 800 Sq. Ft. instead of
1200 Sq. Ft. on the S2 of Lot 11, Block 35, West University Place 1st Addition
be denied since lowering of the restrictions to that extent cannot be justified
by the Board to the general interest of the Community.
