Wit-1 adequate i ; relief, such as is now being requested, the fair market I i value of these lots would be from $7,000 to $10,000, The$ : also stated that a number of buyers would consider pur- : i chasing this property if setbacks were comparable with i i other water front properties. i The Mayor declared the public hearing open, and asked I : the applicant if he wished to speak, I I i DONALD A, BRIGGS, Jit,, stated that at the time of i i the hearing on this matter before the Planning Commis- : ; sion there were four other hearings scheduled that night; i i at that hearing there was one commissioner absent, and i ; two of the commissioners could not agree as to whether a : i variance should be granted on one lot or all three lots. i : When he purchased these lots be purchased them in good : ; faith and as buildable lots. Due to an existing easement : i over this property he does not have sufficient area to build i with the present setback requirements.
