City Planner, Jacqueline Koch stated that Garden Club Apartments are on S. Moss Road. Garden Drive is the road that has been long platted, but never constructed. Lot 10 front property line is adj oining a 45 foot cul-de-sac. This entire 45 foot area is dedicated as a public right-of-way. Ms. Koch stated that with the 45 foot cul-de-sac being as such it would not be feasible to build a quadraplex with the front and rear set-backs as such. However, it is feasible that at some point in time the 45 foot cul-de-sac will be reIDved, but it is purely speculative as to when at this time. The City Planner made the current builder well aware of this prior to building. Jim Huckeba was present to speak on behalf of Jon M. Hall, and was so sworn jn by the Chairman. Mr. Huckeba stated that jn various conversations with the City Planner they had discussed withdrawing the request to reduce the number of parking spaces (from 8 to 6), but rather than park parallel as the other quadraplexs are, park straight jn from the road. But with the latter, it would require backing out onto the cul-de-sac (road). Ellen Weiss stated this would change the original request. Discussion on the feasibility of parking straight jn on lot 10. The City Planner stated that if the application is altered, it would have to be also approved by the Site Plan Review Board. Currently all this Board can act upon is the dimensions. Discussion. City Planner restated that if they could have some assurance that the cul-de-sac would be reITPved, then she would have no problem with what Mr. Huckeba was proposing. However, as the bUilding would be a permenant structure, please bear in mind these people would always be that close to the road and also not have a front lawn. Mr. Huckeba stated they would have "legally" a front lawn. Ellen Weiss asked if there was anyone in the aucU:ence who wanted to speak in agreement with Mr. Huckeba?
