Dear Mr. Bevan:
I represent Mr. and Mrs. Thomas, who have a house located
at '102 Schuman Drive, Sebastian, Florida. They own the lot
be Add them which is on Manly. I understand that you have
startod construction on the lot adjacent to their rear yard lot
and obtained a variance from the City of Sebastian to construct
the house seven and one-half feet(7 1/2)from the property
line, instead of the required ten feet (101).
Since the adjacent lot is owned by Mr. and Mrs. Thomas, I
feel that they are required to have had notice concerning the
obtaining of a variance for construction closer to the property
line than is required by ordinance. I direct your attention to
Florida Statute 176.13 which requires that notice be given to
Interested parties as well as the public, and I have been ad-
vised that Mr. and Mrs. Thomas did not have any notice of
your attempt to obtain this zon ng variance. They do not feel
that the construction of a home closer to their property line
is in order, and I would appreciate your contacting me at your
earliest convenience to forestall further steps on their part.
Mr. William Bevin

We will be reasonable concerning this variance, but I do feel
that your action in obtaining a variance without notifying them
directly of your attempt to obtain the variance has prejudiced
them.
Please contact me at your earliest convenience.
Very truly yours,
70..ES, PAPiIE a FOSTER, D.A.
