PUBLIC HEARING #78-1 Variance to Front and Rear Yard Requirements
106, 108, 110, 112, North Fifth Avenue,VERNON L. SCHUELEIN
The secretary read the application as submitted advising the Board of the two variances
requested by Mr. Schuelein. The first was for a reduction in the required rear yard
setback, .which would allow him to build an attached garage or carport to the existing
structure located at the above address. The second variance was a request to eliminate
the required (15) fifteen feet front yard setback required for commercial buildings
constructed in a C-1 zone. This building would be constructed at some future time.
The Board was advised that proper legal notification of the Public Hearing had been
given and no correspondence had been received for or against the request. Three of
the Public Hearing notices mailed had been returned by the post office marked "unable
to deliver". The public hearing was then open.
The secretary advised the Board that because of another section of the zoning code,
which allows for a reduced rear yard, no action by the Board was necessary on this
variance request.
Mr. Schuelein spoke for the requested variances, explaining that he plans to purchase
the property in question if these variances were approved. He went on to explain
that his immediate plan was to add a garage to the existing duplex apartment if he
could reduce the size of his rear yard and some time in the future after a tenant is
located he plans to demolish the two existing buildings and build a new office building,
if the requested variance for the (15) fifteen feet setback was granted allowing him
to build on his east and west property lines.
Mr. McFarlin from Connell, Washington representing his mother, Mrs. Heneritta Kennedy,
who owns the service station adjacent to the property in question, indicated he nor
his mother were not for or against the requested variance and"was here only for infor-
mation .
There being no further comments from the floor the public hearing -was closed. DdrWin
Murray made a motion to approve the variance as submitted for the (15) feet setback.
The motion was seconded by Shirley Zahn. The motion carried unanimously. There being
no further business Shirley Zahn made a motion to adjourn, Chan Tebay seconded the

APPROVAL OF MINUTES
The minutes of the regular meeting held January 25, 1978 were approved as

The purpose of the public hearing was to consider two (2) Special Permit
Applications. First on the agenda was for Jerilyn C. Horn - File No. 2-78-
of 431 West Shoshone Street, Pasco, Washington.
Chairman Squires requested the acting secretary Donald Smith read the application
as submitted. The requested Special Permit was for the allowance of a Art
and Furniture Gallery for both display, sales and future office or service
business in their residence which is located in a R-3 Residential Zone.
Chairman Squires asked Mrs.Horn if there were any businesses presently
in operation at this location. which she stated there were not. Also Mrs.
Horm was asked for clarification of her intended uses as of now and future.
One of her future uses such as art classes for the handicaped could cause some
problems. Chairman Squires informed Mr. Horn that this type of use in the
future would require further consideration by special permit. Also the
question of legal off street parking was discussed. Mrs. Horn stated that she
could meet the present parking requirements by using the rear yard for parking
of their private car, hauling vehicles and van. Also she stated that they were
trying to acquire parking across the street from service station owners for
additional and future parking. Since there were no letters of protest, the
Board Members discussed the request among themselves before acting on the
request. Then Chairman Squires inform Mrs. Horn that should her request be
:granted part of the granting would be subject to the condition that all license,
permits and the life safety requirements of the building and fire department

Next item on the agenda was for a Special Permit application #3-78 for
David H. Chambers of Water World Marina, Inc. , located at 1315 South 4th
Avenue, Pasco, Washington. Chairman Squires requested acting Secretary
Donald Smith to read the application as submitted. The special Permit
request was for an off premise directional sign permit to be located on
City right of way. Chairman Squires asked Mr. Chambers to clarify the
reasons and needs of a sign as requested. Mr. Chambers stated that when he
agreed to take over Basin Marina through the city lease this was discussed,
but when the lease agreement was drawn up by the City the sign was not mentioned.
He then stated that he went back to the City Manager and Chet Bailie who was
at that time a councilman, who advised him to persue the problem this way due
to the fact that the lease had already been drawn up and signed. The requested
sign location would be on the corner of 4th Avenue and Ainsworth Street.
Board member Tebay asked what size it would be and would it create problems such
as lighting in the residential neighborhood which is a R-2 zone. Mr. Chambers
stated that the proposed sign would be about 5'x6' and that he didn't want
to create a problem for the people in the residential area. Mr. Smith inform
the chairman that if the proposed sign was to be in the R-2 zone the maximum
sign area would be 6 square feet. After reviewing the map it was determined
that the sign would be in a I-1 zone and not R-2 which would put the sign further
from the residential zone. The board then decided to have a closed discussion
among themselves to better understand certain members feelings. After the
board members discussion, Chairman Squires informed Mr. Chambers that should
the board grant his request it would be for the sign only, but not on
location, material or any form of liability and that he would be required to
comply with all codes as determined by the building inspector. Also it would
be up to him to remove the sign at his expense in the future should there be
any improvements that would require it to be moved. After this discussion
board member Chan Tebay made a motion to grant this request provided that the
sign wouldn't have lights or lumination of any type. This motion died upon
failure to receive a second. Member Shirley Zahn then made a motion to grant
this request as presented. The motion was seconded by Darwin. Murray. Motion
carried by a vote of yes from Squire, Zahn and Murray for the motion and
Chan Tebay against. The requested off premise directional sign was granted
and chairman Squires then adjounred the Public Hearing at 9:05 p.m.
Respectfully submitted,

not improve the neighborhood and especially felt that this is being pushed
down their throats.

institution as one example of not wanting more people at the Comm-Home.
Why bring people into the area serving time for crimes already committed when Pasco
