JOANN SPORLEDER: Do you think the walls can be pulled back and tied together sufficiently? AMANDA CRAGEN: I think so. I think the trick is going to be to get the roof off without major calamity. I don't think I will have too much of a problem if I can remove the boards on the comers, and then pull the walls back together and straighten them, and then attach a new roof. MARY JANE CHASE: Does the owner live here? ERIC ROSI-MARSHALL: No, she lives in Illinois outside of Chicago in Palos Park. She has asked me to represent her here tonight.

I thought that Mrs. Anderson was going to be here; but, I do not see her here tonight. In April Mrs. Anderson applied to have several items approved, regarding the Old Hoosier Brewery located at 1626 Lincoln Way West: She had indicated that she intended at a later date to supply more
