Mr. Bob DeGardnex was pxesen� to m�.ke appeal �o�r chi� variance.
Mr. DeGardner said that tha xeason for the variance was that i�he house couldn't be

he had to ask for this variance �0 60 feete To go l�ack any farther would create a
definite hardship. Mr. DeG�,rdaa�r said Chat the house would be completely finished.
