• NEW BUSINESS:
Citation #2243 - Braemer Isle Townhouses - Places Construction
Co. Planting trees without C.A.B. approved
plans.
Tony Abbate stated a citation was issued because
he received a complaint regarding tree planting
without C.A.B. approval. Investigation indi-
cated no planting was done --trees were just
delivered. A citation was issued as a warning,
not a violation. A letter from the Code En-
forcement Board was sent to Braemer Isle Town-
houses stating the citation was dismissed for
'no cause'.
Citation #2244 - James Raisin - illegal garbage station instal-
led on the right of way without permit.
Mr. Abbate spoke with Mr. Raisin regarding the
above citation. The garbage station was re-
moved. Mr. Raisin applied for a permit and in -
isstalled the station in a different location. A
letter from the Code Enforcement Board has been
sent to Mr. Raisin advising the citation has
been satisfied because a permit was obtained
and garbage station relocated.

OLD BUSINESS•
Citation #2245 - A. J. Bonar for illegal installation of davits.
Chairman Scholz asked Tony Abbate to explain
Citation #2245. Mr. Abbate said the situation
has been in existence since 1980. Davits were
installed illegally without permit. Mr. Bonar,
a resident of Canada, contacted Mr. Abbate by
phone on September 18, 1984, to advise he would
be unable to appear before the Board. Secretary
Gerber requested this matter be postponed until
the new zoning is clarified. Town Attorney
Sliney said it is okay to hold this matter in
abeyance to allow Mr. Bonar to file a petition
for a Variance. Mr. Sherbondy made a MOTION
that the Board suspend action in this matter
until the individual is notified by Registered
Mail, Return Receipt Requested, that he has 30
days from receipt of such letter to apply for a
Variance in this matter. If he does not apply
within 30 days, he will be subject to a fine by
this Board. After action is taken upon his ap-
plication, the Code Enforcement Board will de-
cide what further action will be taken in this
case.
