The Meeting was suspended at 6:45 PM to the Executive Session, while waiting for Mr. Brannon to attend to appeal his Home Improvement Application.

The Regular Session resumed at approximately 6:57 PM, upon Mr. Brannon, of 1906 Edinburg, attending the meeting to discuss his home improvement.  Mr. Brannon would like to appeal to the Board for the storage building that was built in his back yard.  He mentioned that the City told his wife that they did not need a building permit if it was under 500 square feet and he has now found out that is not the case, and has submitted for a building permit.  The facility is constructed in the five foot setback, and approximately two feet from the back fence.   Mr. Brannon does not feel that the building is an eyesore to the neighbors.  He mentioned it was constructed of Masonite with galvanized nails and that the roof is Tritan metal, not tin, and he could paint it to match the home.  He stated that the roof could with-stand 120 mile per hour winds and is a 26 gauge thickness.  He said he would disclose anything regarding he building to buyers, when he sells the home.  It was asked what the placement of the building was to the fence lines.  Mr. Brannon stated that the building was three feet to the side fence line and two feet from the back fence.  The Board thanked him for attending to discuss his issue and let him know that they would table their decision until the City’s status of the building permit was determined.
