r Pursuant to due call and notice thereof, the Planning and Zoning Commission of Centerville held a public hearing on July 1, 1986 at City Hall. Chairman Tourville called the meeting to order at 7:15 P.M. Present: Buesseler, Lindgren. Absent: Murray, Welk, Council Liaison. The purpose was to hear all persons present regarding a variance request to extend a garage outside the setback requirements of a corner lot at 1756 Peltier Lake Drive. Members of the audience expressed their opinion on this matter: Art Mohler, 1756 Peltier Lake Drive Ray Petersen, 7262 Main Street John Buckbee III, 3007 James Avenue North Motion by Buesseler, second by Lindgren to recommend to the City Council to grant a setback variance to Ordinance #4, Section 34.01 allowing a 14 foot addition be added to the garage on the Clearwater Drive side of 1756 Peltier Lake Drive, keeping the 50 foot setback off of Peltier Lake Drive, motion carried unanimously. This variance request seems to meet the required standards: - The lot configuration with the cul de sac on Clearwater Drive is unique to this property. - Literal interpretation would deprive him of rights enjoyed by others. - Granting this request will not confer special privi- leges. - This variance will not impair the property values, public health, safety or welfare of the residents of the City.
