Zoning Report:/span>
MMr. David
reported that he had issued no zoning permit since the last meeting.
There was
discussion about the McKillips house on Mason Road. What was thought to be an
effort to clean up the property was actually work being done by a neighbor to
help elevate the eye sore. Because of the damage by the auto accident and to
date there’s been no move to secure the house; Mr. David suggested that he
contact Bob England at the Erie County Health Department to get them involved in
the process of cleaning up the property. The Trustees agreed that they would
have more power to move the process ahead.
Mr. David
reminded the Trustees that James Shickley had applied for a zoning change from
“commercial” to “residential” for a lot that he and his brother were dividing
off of the family estate. Mr. David said the Zoning Board hearing would be
scheduled for Thursday October 27.
Mr. David
reported that Vassie Maharaj who owns the property at 4813 Delematre Road,
Monroeville, Ohio has applied for a variance to do reasonable alterations to a
non-conforming structure. Mr. David explained that they had removed the roof of
the house and were in the process of remodeling the inside of the house along
with planned additions before coming to him for zoning permits. After reviewing
the property which is classified a non-conforming property because the lot
doesn’t meet today’s standards and the house is also non-conforming because it
sets to close to the road, not meeting today’s set back requirements, Mr. David
said he notified them that they had to stop any further construct until a
variance could be approved.
