proposal to divide the lot end sell the south portion for
another residence which will face on Otto Street. Any
possible division of this lot could`faot produce two lots
with the minimum of 6000 square feet required In e
"Residential tA" gone. If the south portion Is rade a
minimun of 6000 square feet for a new residence that will
leave approximately 4150 square feet area for the existing

Question: The Board of Adjustment was called by the Bldg
Inspector, for the purpose of gettin an interpation
of the Ordinance in regard to the legality of
constructing a brick gardon wall along a side yard
property line, the -all to be from Oft to 6 ft in
height. The wall to be located on what constitutes
the front half of the neighbors side yard.
The Board of Adjustment commends the Building
Inspeotor for his caution with respect to the
interptLtatiofio/ of the Zoning Ordinance in the matter
of a gardon wall at 120 AI. Dodge Street.
After a report on the matter and a study of the
Zoning Ordinance, the Board of Adjustment is of the
opinion that the garden wall as planned is not a
non -conformity, that no building permit is necessary
