From looking at the drawings, the board members understood that this man is asking for a 22 foot variance on the front and a 2 and 1/2 foot variance on the sides. Mr. Mackie explained that there is a 5 foot easement on the backs of the properties because of all the light poles in the back, and that this should be taken into consideration. It was pointed out that this easement is drawn in on the map, and he is still 2 and 1/2 feet from the easement.

Mr. Mackie stated that the fence which is going to have to be put up is going to come right out to the street, and are the people going to like looking at this? Mr. Fenske stated that if they want to put up a solid fence for privacy, then it would definitely be a traffic hazard. .
