NEW BUSINESS BA 76-10 TABLED Request of Dean Alexander for a variance to extend a fence past the front of his house and for a storage building in his side yard. This property is located at 6513 Jerry Ct. Mr. Alexander asked for the variance as the fence and storage building are already there and he doesn1t want to take them down. Mr. Roseberry asked if he was aware of the deed restrictions. Mr. Alexander stated not until he recéi.ved the letter from the attorney, Mr. Wood. Mr. Alexander tried for a week before reaching Mr. Wood. Mr. Wood did not realize the fence and building were already built. Mr. Roseberry explained the deed restriction is to protect all property owners. Mr. Alexander had a note on his door when he returned home Thursday afternoon stating the developer had no objections to the request for a variance; however the developer wants to discuss with Mr. Alexander the type of fence to be used. Mr. Alexander stated he did not know what Cameo Developers wanted. If their requirements are too expensive he will have to remove the fence and building. Mr. Trotter asked how this was found. Mr. Britton told the Board the city had a complaint about a horse at this residence and when the inspector went out there he found the zoning violation. Mr. Britton told Mr. Alexander he had to either go before the Board of Adjustment or comply to the zoning ordinance. . ~ .

Mr. Trotter moved, seconded by Dr. Hahn to grant this variance due to the peculiar shape of the lot. Motion carried 4-0.
