15, Block 30, Jupiter in the Pines, Section B, requesting a variance
to the terms of the Village Zoning Ordinance to permit said lots to

perty o~aers located within 500 feet of the proposed variance.
Upon a question from the Chairman, the Clerk advised that
no letters either favoring or opposing the variance had been received.
Mr. Irving Schlusemeyer appeared before the meeting in behalf
of Mr. t~illiam Schlusemeyer and e$pla,ined that they intended to construct
about 120 feet of additional office and store space on the east end
of their present building in the shopping center. He stated they would
properly ]and.scape any parking facility which the Board might pe=mi.t
on the said lots. He further stated one of their companies was the
owner of Lots ?and 1~, Block 30, Jupiter in the Pines, Section B and
• said lots are directly adjacent to the lots on which a variance is re-
quested. He stated that they, as developers, would not want to do
anything that would 3eopardize the sale of any of their properties in
the future.
Mr. John Stead, owner of I~ot 1, Block 33, Jupiter is the Pines,
Section D, did not have a protest against this requested variance but
wondered if this could continue to happen along the north side of Tequesta
Drive directly across from his residence. He was advised that the land
botween the Village Hall and Blair Rouse z~a,s zoned Commercial (d-1) and
he stated he was unaware that it was anything but residential.
A question wa,s asked about drainage for the proposed parking
area and Mr. Schlusemeyer stated Lot 15 would drain to the south and
west to Seabrook Road along Beacon Street since the contour of the land
in this area is to the south.
After thoroughly discussing the situation and them wing no
further questions or information to be offered, the audience in atten-
dance Wa.s dismissed so the Board could further discuss the request.
The Board reviewed the request from all aspects and Good moved
