Alice Bijjani stated that the zoning issue had been cleared up and was na longer an obstacle. She said there were three units on the second floor sharing one b athroom, and three on the third sharing one on that floor, and all other units had private bathrooms . She suggested that the number of occupants for the six units sharing two bathrooms tie restricted to no more than eight, which would mean no more than four persons sharing one b athroom. BOARD ACTION : Mr. Glassman moved that a waiver be granted to permit shared b athrooms , with a limit of four persons occupying three units on each of the floors where bathrooms are shared, upon condition that all remaining code violations listed in the Survey Letter of 5/30/79 are corrected.

APPEARANCE : Marie Marcotte Father Mike Tegeder PROCEEDINGS: Ms . Marcotte told the Board that the second floor had six units , one with its own bathroom and the other five shared a bathroom. The third floor had three units , whose occupants shared one bathroom. She occupied the first floor apartment which had a private bathroom. She and her husband had bought the building in 1941 and it was in opera- tion as ten units at that time . Father Tegeder explained that Ms . Marcotte was asking oniy that she be allowed to continue operating the building as at present until such time as she no longer owned it. He said that all the occupants were elderly people of very limited incomes , some of whom had lived there for up to 30 years an d would find it most difficult to find comp arable living quarters at such reasonable rent. The tenants were all £riends who helped one another in whatever way was needed. Chairman Wozniak asked if there was usually but one tenant in each unit , and Ms . Marcotte said that was co�rect. Mr. Tieso asked Ms . Marcotte if she had any objections to taking care of the other violations listed in the Survey Letter. , • -4- 8/14/7 9 - Me������ 15 2 Ms . Marcotte replied that most of the items were being done , fire doors were to be installed next week, electrical work was already done, and sink that had been� connected to a drainpipe , which she had not been aware of, was being disconnected. She questioned the need to install a vent on the laundry tub drain, since there was a drum trap there , she was the only person who used it , and it had never given any trouble. Ms . Bijjani said proper venting was important, but in this case , it was marginal whether the function of venting was served and it was not as serious as a completely unvented trap. Ms . Marcotte said another matter she questioned was the need for a fire- wall in the ceiling of the attached garage. Ms . Bijjani said she would arrange to have a building inspector stop out and explain exactly what was needed to provide adequate fire separation between the garage ceiling and the storage area above it. She noted tha� it would not be costly, but served an important role in providing fire safety. She mentioned that the city inspector had reported the building generally in excellent shape. BOARD ACTION: Mr. Tieso moved that the variance on the shared bathrooms e granted, restricting occupancy to one tenant per unit, and to grant a variance on the venting requirement on the drum trap installation in the laundry tubs , on condition that appellant meets r�ith a city inspector an d follows his recommendations in regard to installing a fire separation ceiling in the attached garage of the property, and completes aIl other repairs listed by_ _the _city inspector in Survey Letter of 7/S/79. Variance is to remain i�. effect until such time as the property changes hands . Mr. Glassman seconded. MOTION CARRIED AND SO ORDERED.
