Zoning Board Approves One Variance Denies Another
The City Zoning Appeals Board granted a yard variance for two lots at 701 Mich to expand the Blevins Bike Shop by 15 feet along the north boundary and 32 feet west, adding 2,500 square feet, and approved filling a drainage ditch for more space and parking after storm sewer work. It denied Shirley Gillerman’s 17-foot rear yard variance for a 315 Dakota split level addition, finding insufficient justification for the change.
