•r • <br />February 2*), 19B5 <br />To t}io Residents of Crystal iJay Hf>ad, <br />The petition d 1 strlbuteel by Mr. Carl and Mr. Siakel <br />points out that "a /^reat deal of equ i j>tnien t (boats, <br />snowmobiles, docks, etc.) Is arcumulated by (a few) <br />resltlents” and Is •ndeed stored In frotit yaids, iiut, <br />to amend the ordinance Is TOTALLY U.'.NKCESSARf'AND <br />MAY PROVE TO I5E lllOlILY DETHIMEXTAL TO OCR COMMUMTY. <br />You already know that the city ordinance, as it Is, <br />does allow for variances where residents have an <br />ACTUAL HARDSHIP. History has proven that the city Is <br />not blindly and strictly enforclnc this storn^re <br />ordinance. They normally only ^et involved upon a <br />specific complaint. <br />where there are . Inacccssabl e !>ack yards, 1 am In <br />agreement with the general intent of tills petition <br />BUT, LET'S \0r OPEN THE FLOOD GATES. Let's all con <br />tinue to work toward a clean neighborhood- --FOP. <br />EVERYO.VE. If a resident has an ACCESSABLE back yard; <br />HE .SHOULD USE IT. Even now a few people dump "items” <br />In their front yards for all to look at even though <br />they have accessahle back yards. Sheer inconvenience <br />should not be an excuse for anyone to encourage the <br />decay of our neighborhoods appearance. <br />In any case, should a person with an inaccessable <br />back yard be allowed the uncontrolled storage of as <br />much miscellaneous "stuff” in his FRONT y.ird as he <br />may want? As this can potuutially f’Ot out of hand, <br />WE MUST HAVE CONTROLS. Our present ordinance does <br />serve that purpose while still considering true hard- <br />®bip cases. If you still feel that you want our cur“ <br />rent protections weakenetl . Pl.KASK, A! LEAST. AMEND <br />THIS PETITION BEFORE YOU MAIL IT. Heflect your honest <br />concern for our neighborhoods apjiearance by adding a <br />footnote stating tliat "IF A PERSON HAS AN ACCESSABLE <br />BACK YARD, HK SHOULD USE IT'*1 <br />I <br />/ <br />Jefry yu''^w)ieeiei^ \ <br />cAdtal Bay Rd. <br />“* *^)y, VQRrs, j
