AGENDA SUPPLEMENT
1. Approval of Minutes of the Meetinq held on December 8, 1981.
2. Public Rearinq - Set Back Variance - Shawn McGoff
Shawn McGoff, owner of Lot 3, Block 6 in the Meadows Division, has
made an application for a variance to be able to build a 5 x 8 foyer/
entrance onto the front of his home. This property is zoned R-1.
Mr. MCGoff does not presently have entrance onto his home, but
rather when you come into the front door, you come directly into the
living quarters of the home. It is Mr. McCoff'a intent to build an
entrance way onto the front of his home which would be 25 feet back
from the front yard act back, rather than the 30 foot, as required
by Monticello ordinance, as an engery conservation measure. Mr.
MCGoff desires to build this foyer to reduce the amount of heat lose
when going into his home through the front entrance. As previously
stated, if allowed, this entrance would come within 25 feet of the
property line where the ordinance requires 30 feet.
Enclosed, please find a copy of a letter from Nr. MCGoffs only
abutting neighbor in which he states he has no objection to this
front yard variance request, and states that he supports Mr. MCGoff's I
request. n `
APPLICANT: Shawn MCGoff y

RUF.RENCES. A letter from an abutting neighbor stating no objections
to this variance request. Mr. MCGoff will also ho present at Tuesday
night's meeting with his proposed plans for this addition.
