The Board went to 510 South Riverside Drive where Mr. Phillips explained to the Board the
proposed location of the screen room addition. Mr. Phillips made reference to the house that
is south of 510 South Riverside Drive showing that it sits closer to the road than the proposed
addition will be.
There was discussion between the Board members regarding the various setbacks of the
neighboring homes.
Mr. Phillips said the applicant's would be suffering an undue burden not being able to do the
same thing as 602 S. Riverside Drive.
Mr. Phillips also described where the screen room could possibly be added to the front of the
residence.
The Board inquired as to the possibility of adding the screen room to the north side of the
residence. Mr. Karet said if the screen room was added to the north side of the residence the
access to the screen room would be from a bedroom that contains and entrance/exit door, and

what his alternative plans were and Mr. Phillips replied, none. Mr. Phillips corrected Mr.
Masso saying he said except for the front plan, but he does not recommend it as it would take
away from the view of Riverside Drive.
Chairman Hellsten asked for a clarification from Mr. Karet concerning the room on the
northwest comer of the residence and asked if it is a bedroom. Mr. Karet replied, yes.
Chairman Hellsten asked if it is conceivable to put a screen room to the northerly side of the
house, with the exception that it would block the access to the most northerly bedroom. Mr.
Karet said the outside door to that bedroom would have to be closed off.
