Seeing none, we'll move on to convening as the Board of Adjustment.

Uh

the Board of Adjustment is a seven-member board, which has the power to hear requests for variances and special exceptions.

A concurring vote of two-thirds of the full membership is necessary for the approval of any action by the board.

A seven-member board requires five votes, a six-member board requires five votes, a five-member board requires five votes.

In

accordance with Robert's rules of order, we require a motion to approve a request before the request can be debated.

As a matter of policy, all motions are made in the positive.

The

board, under specific powers granted it by the state, shall authorize variances from the zoning requirements.

Where special conditions existing on the land will result in unnecessary hardship for the applicant.

Financial disadvantage to the property owner shall not constitute proof of unnecessary hardship.

Move on to item 6A front yard uh setback variance request.

The request is to build an addition 35 feet two inches from the property line.
