Dear Board of Adjustment:
I recently submitted a Variance Request on behalf of the Ruth R. Schnarr Trust that is on
your Agenda for October 10, 2013. Our permanent residence is in Indiana; the property
before you is a seasonal cottage that we enjoy during the summer. Before leaving the
cottage this past summer, I met with our neighbor, Jim Blaine, to show him our deck
plans and see if he would be willing to represent us at the meeting. Jim graciously agreed
to do so. When we received notice of the meeting and I notified Jim, we discovered that
he was going to be in Oklahoma at the time. Rather than incur the additional expense of
time off of work and travel expenses from Indiana, I respectfully request that you table
our Variance Request until your November meeting. I have already checked with Jim to
ensure that he will be able to attend. If for some reason he is not able, I will make plans
to travel to attend the meeting myself Please accept my sincere apologies for this
inconvenience.
Sincerely,
=v^SCANNED♦ ^ -
