To Whom It May Concern•..
As requested on your application, I am writing this letter to request a variance, as set out
on my drawings, for an addition to my house located at 1210 Sheridan.
I am asking for this variance because I only have a one car garage. My other vehicle has
to sit out in the weather. I would like to have this vehicle sheltered, also. It would be of
great benefit to me during bad weather because I would be sheltered from the rain as I
exit my car and enter the house.
Another reason, as you can see, this addition would give my house a nice looking
appearance and that it would match the front.
Thank you for your kind consideration to this matter.
Sincerely,
&dAa--r
Bruce Allred
