Mr. Erickson described the problems he had encountered with flooding dur- ing the last few years, and explained how the proposed addition is being designed„ to prevent future flood waters from getting into his house.

Present to request the variance were r1r. R. E. Ische, rYr. Paul Schilling, and Mr. Richard Vanman. The petitioners asked to amend their petition by increasing the parking space waiver to 5 off the required number of 57 to a total of 52 parking spaces. Walter Kost moved to add the amended request to the agenda, and it was seconded by LeRoy Anderson and so carried. The Chairman then reviewed the application, and found it to be in order. The Board discussed other variance requests along this same street. They were reminded that Jacobson i°iachine, which is located on the adja- cent property to the North, had received a variance allowing a green area of 35' along the West line of that property. The proponent described the proposed addition and the parking and land- scaping to be done in conjunction with the new construction. LeRoy Anderson said he would rather see more parking spaces waived and a 35' landscaped area on the West end of the property. This would be more consistent with the waiver on the property to the North. The proponents were agreeable to the suggestion. LeRoy Anderson moved to grant the waiver of Section 7.051 for 15t off the required SO' landscaped area along the West property line, and for Section 13.01 for 16 spaces off the required number of 57 parking spaces. It was seconded by Walter Kost. During the discussion of the question, it was agreed that the proposed green areas would be properly landscaped and maintained, and that this was the final expansion of the building on the present site. The question was called and carried unanimously. As a final item of business, the Board discussed the 1976 budget, and suggestions were made to carry on to the Chairman's meeting with the Mayor. There being no further business to come �efore the Board, it was on motion duly seconded ad�ourned at 8:45 P.M. l����-��'�'�- �„�,�. � Mahlon Swedberg, Chai an J m s Ingemunson Secretary
