NAVARRE TO 322 W. MARION <br />Mr. Leszczynski advised that the Board had conducted a public <br />hearing on the proposed house move of Southhold Restoration, <br />Inc., on October 25, 1982, and had continued the hearing to <br />this date because of the concerns expressed by neighbors <br />regarding drainage. He stated that the Legal Department had <br />also been requested to review the Board's authority on house <br />moves and whether or not the Board's responsibility was limited <br />to the actual house move on city streets only. Mr. Lewis Hegyi, <br />Attorney for Southhold Restorations, practicing at 502 West <br />Washington Street, stated that the home was designated as an <br />architecturally and historically valued home and that the <br />home was ranked 12 out of a possible ranking of 13 regarding <br />its historical value. He advised that $8,120 would be used <br />from Housing Authority funds to restore the home to its original <br />condition after which it would be sold as a single-family <br />dwelling Southhold would retain a facade easement for ;the <br />building which would continue so.long as the building was <br />standing which would mean that any changes to the home as <br />they would affect historical significance would need Southhold's <br />approval. Mr. Hegyi felt the home would be to the benefit of <br />the health, safety and welfare of the community. He stated <br />that Southhold would be adding to the housing stock in the <br />community and a home would be saved from demolition. He felt <br />there was also educational value in saving the structure and <br />relocating it within the same neighborhood. He stated that <br />the allegations made at the Board meeting of October 25, 1982, <br />concerning the values of surrounding properties being reduced <br />was speculative and the location of the home within the <br />particular neighborhood designated was a matter of taste and <br />a person's style and there was no standard on what is <br />acceptable in a particular neighborhood. He assured the <br />Board and property owners in the vicinity of the proposed <br />house move that the home would be restored to its original <br />state and maintained as such, and would, in fact, become <br />an asset to the neighborhood. He advised that Southhold <br />had complied with all city codes as far as height, area and <br />use of the property and the structure. Regarding the <br />question of water run-off to abutting properties, Mr. <br />Hegyi stated that he had conferred with Paul Roelke of the <br />city's Building Department, and it was Mr. Roelke's opinion <br />that any potential drainage problems could be resolved if <br />some changes were made by Southhold on the location of the <br />home. In turn, Southhold had agreed to terrace the property <br />down somewhat and allow additional land between the home <br />and the house on the east in order to alleviate drainage <br />problems. Mr. Charles H. Buetter, owner of the property at <br />316-318 West Marion Street, advised that his family had <br />owned their building on Marion Street since 1907. He stated <br />that he realized the Board would probably have to approve <br />
