request a variance for their property located at the corner of South Cincinnati and East

30x60 with a 14.7’ peak. Carried. Rhyner also asked that they keep the Commission
informed of their plans to proceed with the house progress as soon as a plan has been
decided upon.
B. PAUL MORRISON 304 SUGAR RIVER PARKWAY: Morrison is requesting a 15’ variance
to allow for a 10’ front setback rather than the required 25’, which is needed in order to
meet the 75’ DNR rear setback. The two next door neighboring homes are at a 1.6’ and
5.7’ front setback from the property line. The house plan is a single story, approximately
1,200 square feet, with a garage and walkout basement. Morrison is not currently the
