fence behind their homes and that this fence will not stop an 18 wheeler or slow
down a hurricane. He stated that since the undergrowth has been taken out, his
pool is not usable because of the sound decible level. He would be very pleased
to look out the back of his home and see a wall. He encouraged growth. He
welcomed neighbors. He stated that the empty lot has been a burden on the City,
who had repeatedly contacted the former land owner about maintaining that lot.
Mr. Showalter looked forward to someone wanting to build a larger home there to
enhance property values and increase the tax base in the City. He said we need
to encourage growth if this community is going to prosper and grow.
No one else wished to speak in favor of or against granting this variance.
Mr. Bryan referred to the homes on the west side of Diane Drive having less than
the allowed setback. Six of them vary anywhere from 12 to 20 feet from the
seawall, which is substantially less in many cases.
Motion
Ms. Houston moved to grant the request for a variance in Case No. 206 as stated
by the applicant. Ms. Hammer seconded the motion. A roll call vote was polled
by the recording secretary as follows:
Patti Hammer

home.
