an estimate from Care-Free Aluminum Products Inc. who would be performing the work.
Being professionally installed it was noted that it would be metal with steel gutters.
It was noted that there has been no objection from Mrs. Owens neighbors and City Engineer Reel related that the property was properly posted.
Commissioner Nabors moved to approve the setback variance as requested.
Commissioner Walker seconded the motion and opened it for discussion for a friendly amendment.
Commissioner Walker pointed out that other variances of this nature to come before the Board had additionally received written approval from the adjacent neighbors.

MOTION CARRIED.
Chairman Perry related that the second request is from Pulaski County Special School District for a ten foot building line variance for an Athletic facility to be located at 2400 Linda
Lane (Jacksonville High School).
It was related that because of the location of an existing sewer line the proposed development needed to be located on said property as shown by plat which would require a ten foot building
line variance instead of the usual 35' setback.
In response to a question posed by Commissioner Hardwick, it was related that the development would be a 100' by 150' metal building.
He related that the property had been properly posted.
Commissioner Boroughs moved, seconded by Commissioner Hardwick to grant the variance of a 10' building line setback. MOTION CARRIED.
