Miy OF QRQMQ , . <br />Qxf.fU^M»J( <br />Pisfr'f’ <br />In the tuaser of 1958, I went to fee George Hansen to get <br />• building perait. At that tiae I was inforaed that 1 had to <br />see the Council for approval. At the next meeting I approached <br />the Council for approval. X explained that Z had about five <br />(5) acres of land and I wanted to build at the east end of this <br />land. Herb Boss, then Mayor, knew the property and aade a <br />motion to approve the perait. A second motion was about to be <br />ooda when Mr. Bugley questioned the legality of two homes on <br />the same property. He said two houses on a lot of a sub*divi*> <br />sion was not legal. I explained that there waan't any division <br />of property and that the houses would be at least 400 feet <br />apart. I already had a mortgage approval from Midwest Federal <br />for an increase in the existing mortgage. The approval was <br />tabled until legal advice could be obtained from the Village <br />lawyer. <br />Z waited about two months to hear the results that never <br />came even when I asked what was going on. 1 called Herb Boas <br />X work early one Saturday morning and informed him I couldn't <br />wait longer because of winter coming and was going to start <br />construction that day. <br />About two weeks later Herb called and said to stop in and <br />get a building perait. It was finally approved. At that time <br />he expressed his wish that I would consider dividing the land <br />to satisfy Council members and also a doubtful legal tangle. I <br />said I would think it over. <br />When I went to get the permit from George Hansen I inquir** <br />ed about restrictions on lot sise if I divided the land. He <br />informed me of no restrictions of lot size, but expressed his <br />desire to have it at least 140 feet vide at the building site. <br />Having 693 feet of land on the south would have given me 5 or 6 <br />lots. I decided to divide the land and contacted Gordon Coffin <br />for survey. Finding 5 or 6 lots not appealing to me, I settled <br />for 4 lota. I - 150 feet, 2 - 140 feet, and the third I left <br />263 feot for myself. This was accepted by the Village and Herb <br />thanked me for my cooperation with their request. <br />P.:- - <br />m." i '*r • <br />i-. -. <br />.• i. <br />•“ <br />/
