Mr. Jakubowski made note for the record that as Mr. Trieble’s neighbor, he has
no knowledge of this project and therefore feels that there is no conflict of
interest.
Mr. Young questioned that if Mr. Trieble is not meeting required setbacks,
should Zoning be involved? Mr. Jakubowski explained that Zoning is not required
in this instance, as this project is an improvement to a non-conforming use. In
