Gary and Shelle Perleberg have requested a <br /> seven foot variance from the 10 foot minimum parking/driveway setback from <br /> the property line in order to access an existing garage and create off-street <br /> parking. Their property, located at 817 Main Street, is the site of Natural <br /> Expressions floral shop, The Nook gift shop, and a residential apartment. They <br /> currently have no off-street parking for their floral delivery van, which is essential <br /> to their business, or for the residents. The applicants have tried, without success, <br /> to rent or use parking space from nearby businesses. Staff recommends approval <br /> of the request based on the findings in the staff report dated November 23, 1999. <br /> Chair Mesich opened the public hearing. <br /> Shelle Perleberg, applicant, expressed her appreciation for staff's help with their <br /> • <br /> request. She asked that the Commission approve their request. <br />
