MOORESVILLE BOARD OF ZONING APPEALS MINUTES THURSDAY, APRIL 12, 2001 The Mooresville Board of Zoning Appeals met on Thursday, April 12, 2001, at 7:00 P.M. at the Mooresville Town Hall. Members present were: Don Barry, President, Jeff Justice, and Jonathan Swisher. Alan Kramer and Mike Young were absent. Tim Currens, Town Attorney, was present. Commissioner Jeff Justice, second by Commissioner Jonathan Swisher, made a motion to approve the minutes of March 8, 2001. Motion carried 3- 0. Next was a Variance at 10984 Rooker Road by Debbie Sweet to have a one-operator beauty shop in her home. She stated there would need to be sign erected because her home is approximately 800 feet off the road. The board restricted the size of the sign to be only 2 feet by 4 feet and meet the ordinance setback requirements. Motion to approve a variance at 10984 Rooker Road for a one operator beauty shop with a sign restriction that the sign will be no larger than 2 feet by 4 feet and meet the ordinance setback requirement, was made by Commissioner Jeff Justice, second by Commissioner Jonathan Swisher. Motion carried 3-0. Next Ross Holloway of Holloway and Associates, representing the American Legion, present a petition for a variance for the property located at the northwest corner of East Main Street and Indianapolis Road. They were requesting a variance for two purposes. The first purpose is to construct a building across lot lines. The building proposed is 88 feet in length with a patio, which could cross over one of the lot lines. Crossing over the sidelines of lot 5 and/or the far east sideline of lot 6 will cause a setback problem for the side yard. Second purpose for a variance is for the front setback. With the depth of the property and being zoned B-3, the setback requirement of 40 feet would not make for the best use of the property. They are requesting a zero setback so when they start to design the building they can use the property to the best advantage for parking and landscaping. They pointed out the most of the surrounding businesses have a zero front setback.
