parking of trucks in the area; 5) Permit application lists
"barn"; 6) Mr. Yaeger has admitted on record to the police
department that he is operating a business in a residential
district with service provided to clients outside the area; 8)
Hired drivers report to work at this location. She further
stated that she felt it was not the neighborhood's oesponsibility
to monitor the comings and goings of the trucks and questioned
who would actually monitor and enforce the conditions setforth by
the Plan Commission, what the penalty for infractions of the
conditions would be and if possible the establishment of an
equity bond for repaving of the road due to the damage caused by
the use of the tri axle trucks. She felt this use should not be
allowed in a residential district and was in violation of the
zoning ordinance. The usage should be under industrial zoning.
Mrs. Nievinski asked Mrs. Zangerle whether she had stated her
complaints in writing. She replied that she had attended all the
meetings and since no action had taken place as yet had not done
so and was stating her objections at this time. Alderman
DeAngelis stated the road has a weight limit of 10,000 pounds and
the trucking is hazardous to the road. Within the next three
years there will be no road. In his opinion Mr. Yaeger had put
the building up with the intention of running a business on the
property. Zoning Officer Lee questioned the fact that the road
had a weight limit of 6,000 pounds and through a recent change in
the ordinance the limit had been changed to 10,000 pounds.
APPEAL 13-87 - MARK A. GOODSON Mr. Mark Goodson appeared
before the Board to request a 10 172ront setback variance to
construct a 7' X 24' deck around his home to cover the concrete
stoop and blacktopped area. Zoning Officer Lee stated that the
homes in the area were quite close to the 16' road. Mr. Goodson
felt the deck would be an improvement to the area.
APPEAL 14-87 - JESSE A. BENTLEY Mr. and Mrs. Jesse
Bentley appeared before the Board to request a 10' offset
variance from rear lot line to build a residence. The topography
of the lot indicates that the lot line from the road steeply
pitches uphill. They would like to locate the home on the
flatest portion of the land to utilize the lot better which would
be 10' from the rear lot line. The outlot behind their lot is
undevelopable.
The Board took a 5 minute break at 9:05 P.M. The Board remained
in open session.
APPEAL 9 -87 Mr. Berken moved to approve the appeal as
submitted. Mrs. Nievinski seconded and the motion carried. The
hardship is the design of the sign.

Mrs. Nievinski wanted the record to reflect that the
Board of Appeals plans to adhere to the 5% permitted signage
allowable in the future.
APPEAL 11-87 Mrs. Koester moved to deny the appeal as
submitted. Mr. Berken seconded and the motion carried. The
Board of Appeals has already granted a variance on the existing
Pizza Hut sign.
APPEAL 12-87 Mr. Berken moved to deny the appeal as
submitted and uphold the Plan Commission's decision that
previously denied the parking of trucks for Lawrence Yaeger and
grant the appellant one year to remove the trucks and relocate.
The Board of Appeals felt that this type of trucking activity is
unsuitable for this area. Mrs. Koester seconded. The motion to
deny carried in the majority with Mr. Fohr and Mr. Caporali
casting dissenting votes.
Mr. Fohr wanted the record to reflect that his opinion
as stated at the Plan Commission meeting of June 16, 1987 was
that Mr. Yaeger would be allowed to review the parking of trucks
in one year increments.
Mr. Berken moved to approve the minutes of the May 28,
1987 meeting. Mr. Caporali seconded and ti:P motion carried.
APPEAL 13-87 Mrs. Nievinski moved to approve the appeal
as submitted. Mrs. Berken seconded and the motion carried. The
hardship is the location of the house in relation to the 16'
road. Mrs. Koester abstained from voting.
APPEAL 14-87 Mr. Fohr moved to approve the appeal as
submitted. Mr. Caporali seconded and the motion carried. The
hardship is the topography of the lot.

P.M. Mr. Berken seconded and the motion carried.
