Tallent, City Manager Mr. O. H. Anderson, Building Inspector Request or Mr. Benjamin White (Lot 7, Block E, LaJolla) 10/12/57 It is the recommendation of the Zoning Board that the request for a fifteen root set-back on Granada be granted under the hardship ruling, particularly because Granada is a d~-end street, and the depth of the lots in this area are not too great. The owner has also stated that the additional reason for wanting this 15' setback is that there is no sewera~e in the area and he would like a large back yard for a septic tank, and the 162' rear yard is just about the minimum that he can get a septic tank in. Attached hereto is original letter of request with building set-backs and surveyor lot. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Honorable City Commissioners Clearwater, Florida Gentlemen: Sept. 10, 1957 As Trustees of the City of Clearwater Employees' Pension FUnd, you are hereby notiried that Dries H.
