V. STAFF ADVISOR'S CHOICE
Mr. Stitt stated the case at 4400 South Bannock was withdrawn . There is still the potential
for a public hearing in April to vacate a variance at 2303 East Dartmouth Avenue. Mr.
Se y mour asked for clarification. Mr. Stitt responded ; the Board granted a variance at 2303
East Dartmouth Avenue to allow professional offices for architects, engineers, and attorney s
with the condition that if the property was not used for thos e us es it w ould re v ert to sin gl e
family residential ; even though educational and religious institutions are allowed uses in
that zone district.
Mr. Stitt further stated that City Council appointed Steve Mulhern as an alternate to the
Board. Mr. Mulhern previously served on the Planning and Zoning Commission ,
Englewood Urban Renewal Authority, and the Housing Authority. The purpose of th e
alternate is to attend the Board meetings and learn how the Board operates. If a current
Board member resigns, Mr. Mulhern would move from being an alternate to being a Board
member. The purpose of the alternate is not to "fill in " should a Board member be absent
from a meetin g.

There was no further business brought before the Board . The meeting was declared
adjourned at 7:45 p.m .
