Mabusth, Zoning Acininiatrotcr <br />Occno City Kail <br />2780 Kelley Parkway <br />Crcno, <br />subject: LAiJD USS APPLICATION ’#1611 AT 3237 CASCO CIRCLE <br />Dear Ms. Mabusth; <br />In an effort to expand on the letter submitted by Bielke & Richards, <br />here are seme additional censideratiens which are pertinent to making <br />a well-infcrmed deciaicn. <br />1) The aucceasicn of ownership cf Let 18 is: <br />Year Owner <br />1976 Tuthill <br />1977-1986 •Smith <br />1987-1988 Mertes <br />1988-Present "Reraien <br />When Mertes bought the lot in 19S7, it was his intention to build a <br />home after selling his other residence. By 1968 Mertes was still unMle <br />to sell his existing home and subsequently/ sold the lot to me for $80,cco <br />as a buildable lot. At that point my intention was to expand my present <br />residence on Lot 19 to cover in serve part, Lot 18. <br />In October of 1985 when Bielke .purchaeed his home, there was a valid <br />variance for that lot. In 1986 and 1907, variances were again granted <br />to build on Lot 18. At no time did Bielke file a request that these <br />variances be denied. <br />The soil erosion problem referred to in Paragraph #2 was the result <br />of tiie rain storm of the century in the early 1980's when 8-10 of rain <br />fell in a 12-hour period. There has been no other significant erosion <br />of record since that time. <br />In Paragraph #4, the question of "owner hardship" is the <br />adjacent property which could be added to make this lot buildab-e. <br />There ere numerous hernus on the east shore of Casco Pomt with <br />sised lots, and a new residence wculd net cempremise the integr-ty c.. <br />the neighborhood. <br />Jttti
