O'Connell City Clerk Building Dear Madam: This is in the matter of the appeal of the Church of St. Casimir to relax the building line to zero feet on property located on the south side of Geranium Avenue between Mendota and Forest Streets for the purpose of erecting a canopy to cover the stair- way and `entrance to the proposed school building addition. The property is described as the east 10 feet of Lot 5, and the west 25 feet of Lot 4, all in Block 10, Eastville Heights. The zoning is "B "' residence and has been since the enactment of the Ordinance in 1922. The site is presently used as a playground in connection with the existing church and school. The applicant proposes to erect an addition to the school building with the building entrance, stairs and buttress covered by a canopy. This canopy would extend be- yond the required building line set back which is 14 feet as established by the residences in the block erected prior to August 22, 1922. The building itself would set back 17 feet from the property line. The proposed canopy would involve a frontage along Geranium Avenue of approximately 30 feet, and would be at least 100 feet from the nearest residence in the block. North across Geranium Avenue are single - family residences front- ing on Geranium Avenue; east, west and south adjoining is the applicant's property and facilities; farther west and adjoining are single - family residences fronting on Geranium Avenue. Field investigation discloses no basic objections to the proposed canopy extending to the front property line in that it will not be detrimental to the surrounding properties. On May 25, 1960, the City Council granted the applicant an informal approval of the appeal. Based on the above factors, the Board of Zoning recommends the granting of the appeal to relax the building line to zero (01) feet on the above described property.

Inasmuch as the Church of St. Casimir is about to con- struct an..elementary school building on Lots .2, 3 and 4 of Block 10, Eastvitle Heights we find that we must secure the .approval of the City Council for a canopy that will violate the building line. This building designed by Haarstick Lundren & Associates is so designed that the building line of the building, itself will. be in conformity to° the building line as established by the residences now on Geranium- Avenue. But, at the .entrance to the building on Geranium Avenue there wild. be .a concrete landing, and set of steps approximately 30 feet wide. Over part of the steps, there wilt be a, light steel frame canopy that will be approximately 18 feet wide and 17 feet deep. It will be about 15 feet in height from, the ground level. . Its construction . will be tight steel frame with a pitch and gravel roof and proper drain to. the storm. sewer.
