Board of Appeals <br />Page 2 <br />July 19, 1979 <br />Davies: This must be west right? The house in question is where? <br />The setback is where? <br />Ross: So your objection is that this house in line with the view <br />that you wanted. <br />Knott: This is from a family room window, which illustrates it <br />further. <br />} <br />Ross: There's a four feet difference is that correct? <br />Knott: That's correct. <br />Davies: I would like to ask you Steve, has there been any building <br />permits allowed for properties 670 or building 55 which is to the <br />north and to the west? <br />Ferris: Your talking about the property 679 W Ash Street? <br />Davies: That is correct. <br />Ferris: There's been no permit issued on it but we've got some <br />preliminary plans on the building. <br />Davies: Is there anybody that wants to comment pro or con regarding .. <br />this property?

The variance should be granted because inthis <br />particular case, the structure now under construction is less obstr- <br />ucting than it could be. <br />Knott:. Four feet is four feet, and as far as I'm considered, it is. <br />an obstruction to my view. I feel that I should be <br />under the zoning restrictions. <br />Pat Barnbassel: I am the buyer of the house under consideration. <br />We've worked for the past year trying to find suitable housing in <br />Boulder County. We have to work not only with the builder, with the <br />archeticts, and with the lenders, and also with the Vetrans Admini- <br />stration. The V.A. has certain requirements that I have to meet in <br />any house that I get with a V.A. Grant for this purpose. One of the <br />entitled to this <br />
