The applicants request several <br />variances for construction of a driveway and single family <br />residence.

Further, it is our understanding that even if <br />the proposed extensive alterations to the existing bluff were <br />allowed, the applicants would still have a marginal access based on <br />AN EQUAL OPPCRTUNITY EMPLOYER
