MCNETT, 1096 Knowles Ave. i stated that he has lived at this address since 1950 and has! : paid for all the sewer and street improvements on Knowlek i Ave. and now finds that the City claims that Davis Avenue! ; is his frontage. All he wants to do is build a patio. Due ; to the topography of the Land he has had to put in a retain: : ing wall. He had to move his garage back after he had ; I poured one retaining wall. He has been maintaining the ; : property on Davis Avenue. According to the ordinance, t$e i narrow payt of his property is his front and so this requirFs ; a variance in order to build this patio.

That granting the variance would not exceed the : I ; allowed lot coverage or restrict visual clearance of traffi/ i on either Davis Avenue or Knowles Avenue. i 3, That all other yard requirements are maintained. i I : feasible to have the frontage of this property on Davis i : Avenue and this is to be cnnsidered the side yard since ; i the improvements have been put in by the owner on KnowIf!s : Avenue.
