He stated that after he left the last meeting when his application was denied, he began researching moving the mobile home. Every mover he contacted refused to move the trailer due to the fact that the warranty on the mobile home would be voided. He then contacted the dealer. The dealer verified that this was true. Board Member Marvin Elam made a motion, seconded by Board Member Gil Boyles to approve V97-11. (2) Board Member Calvin Collier raised the question of what would happen if the current resident moved. He feels that the variance will apply to the property address and not the mobile home at that property address; therefore, the variance would apply to anyone who moved in.

Guynes made a suggestion to reduce variance meetings back to once a month (unless an absolute hardship) to try and eliminate the number of variances being applied for.
