He <br /> stated that all houses built since this matter was brought to his <br /> attention do meet the requirement. He asked for a waiver on the <br /> homes previously constructed. He added that corrective measures <br /> are not satisfactory and would only create more problems. <br /> <br /> Mr. Smith stated that lamination does create problems and <br /> that the homeowners are opposed to any lamination of the <br /> skylights. <br /> <br /> Council discussion ensued regarding the problems with <br /> lamination, and emphasized that while the Council normally <br /> requires that the Code be enforced, in this instance there is <br /> sufficient reason to waive the requirement on the homes previously <br /> constructed. <br /> <br /> It was moved by Member Brandes, and seconded by Member Mohr, <br /> granting the appeal by Shea Homes, waiving the Uniform Building <br /> Code requirement (Chapter 34) for sloped glazing and skylights <br /> on those homes in which the glazing has already been installed. <br /> The roll call vote was as follows: <br /> AYES: Members Brandes, Butler, Mohr, Tarver, and Chairperson <br /> Mercer <br /> NOES: None <br /> ABSENT: None <br /> <br />Chairperson Mercer adjourned the meeting of the Building <br />-Inspection Appeals Board, and reconvened the meeting of the City <br /> Council. <br /> <br /> REPORTS OF THE CITY MANAGER <br /> item 12a <br /> Request for Annexation of Approximately 2.07 Acres located on the <br /> South Side of Sycamore Road West of Amber Lane fPioneer <br /> Investment) <br /> Mayor Mercer declared this item removed from the agenda, at <br /> the request of the applicant. <br /> <br /> - 20 - 12-20-88 <br /> <br /> <br />
