1. Discussion Variance V-112-11 5800 Dewey Street
Decisioni Required - Whether to change the Town's position
The Mayor and Town Council sent a statement to the Board of Appeals, which noted the Town was not in favor of the new construction on the site and if it could be separated, then the Town would support the Variance for the other structures. The County would support the verification of the other structures. The Mayor has met with the homeowner who is now proposing the attached changes to the new construction for consideration.

Decision Required: Whether to amend.
The Town Staff was taken to task and directed, in January 2005 by the Mayor and Town Council, to diligently insure that trash cans and recycling buckets were placed at the curb and removed from the curb in compliance with the Town Code.
