The meeting was called to order by the Chairman.
The first item of business was a continuation of a hearing from the
special meeting of June 28, 1974. The owner of Ridgewood Arms Apartments,
2580 Ridgewood Avenue, had requested consideration of a variance of 9 feet
in the Sign Ordinance, as it pertains to front yard setback requirements
in MR -1 District, for an existing sign which had been erected right on
• the property line.
Mr. Lee Cohn of Award Developers, Inc., representing Ridgewood Arms,
told the board that the owner had decided to move the sign 6 feet back
from the property line, and was therefore now requesting consideration of
a variance of 4 feet in the front yard setback requirement.
After consideration, on the motion of Mr. White, seconded by Mr. Karns
and carried by a unanimous vote, a variance of 4 feet in the Sign Ordinance
as it pertains to front yard setback requirements in MR -1 District, was
granted for the ground sign for Ridgewood Arms Apartments, 2580 Ridgewood
Avenue.
Mr. John J. Leffler next submitted the following letter for considera-

• Signed: John J. Leffler
Owner
Mr. Leffler explained that he proposed to build a single -story
addition to his building to be used to bring all of his exposed rental
equipment under cover. He said it would be an enclosed structure con-
forming to the existing building, and he was requesting consideration
of a variance of 8 feet in the side yard setback on the east side of
his property, and a variance of 5 feet in the rear yard setback. The
rear yard abuts the parking lot of an office building.
After discussion, it was the consensus that putting the rental
equipment under cover would be an improvement to the appearance of this
property.
Mr. White made a motion to grant a variance of 8 feet in the side
yard setback requirements on the east side, and a variance of 5 feet
in the rear yard setback requirements at 602 West 27th Street, The
motion was seconded by Mr. Karns and was carried by a unanimous vote.
There being no further business, the meeting was adjourned.
