TO: Village Administrator <br />FROM: Inspector <br />DATE: July 1, 1969 <br />SUBJECT: Variance - Thomas Betz - Building Setback <br />A problem has arisen regarding the setback on the Betz property. I <br />suggested Mr. Betz meet me this morning along with his surveyor. On <br />measuring the front setback, the surveyor came up with 24' instead <br />of the 35' submitted on the site survey. The question came up as <br />to fault, whether the surveyor erred or the stakes were moved after <br />the surveyor had set them, both of them denying the guilt for the <br />discrepancy. I believe both of them to be men of integrity, and it <br />probably was a human error. <br />Since this house is already framed and partially sided, it would be <br />very costly to tear it down and move it back; but on the other hand, <br />Mr. Betz is in violation. <br />I asked him to apply for a variance and leave it to the discretion <br />of the Village Council. There will not be any more houses on that <br />side of the street, so the problem is not as acute as if future houses <br />were to be constructed and aligned with this one. <br />
