Building permit applications under fire at Syracuse

During numerous issues discussed at the Tuesday night Syracuse town board of trustees meeting at town hall, traveling of an alleyway and several building permit applications came under fire. The partial alleyway, an apparent issue for a’ number of years, is located at the north edge of property owned by Mrs. Raymond Poynter on North Huntington street. A widow supplementing her income by a day care nursery for youngsters, Mrs. Poynter t has complained of unnecessary travel and speed in the alley. Also, she added, she has insufficient parking space for her vehicle at her property. A portion of the alley was temporarily closed, by the town board, last year for repairs due to the travel at that time causing needed repairs because of mud and holes. Signs placed in the area, however, disappeared overnight added Mrs. Poynter and she then placed a number of honeysuckle bushes and a picnic table in the alley thinking it had been closed to traffic. Due to being a narrow alley, Mrs. Poynter stressed the safety factors involved including parents needing to back out from her residence onto Indiana 13. Again, thinking the alley closed, Mrs. Poynter said she had a portion of it paved at an expense of SSOO, adding that over the past 25 years she had cared for and beautified the grounds area to the north of her and owned by the town where the standpipe is located and had received no complaints. One-Way Following other discussion on the matter, town board members agreed to check the area on a possibility of making a one-way to the west on the short alley joining with the other alley for a possible one-way north, as explained by town attorney Bruce Frey. Town board members agreed they did not wish to close or vacate any alley in the town as they were placed for a purpose and should remain there. Many utility and town lines lie in alleys, plus being used for fire protection. Appearing on behalf of Mrs. Poynter were Mr. and Mrs. Daniel O’Haver, Mrs. Tom Prickett, Mrs. Larry Yoder and Ernest Rogers. - Rogers inquired as to a possible petition for vacating this alley at which time Frey defined closing and also vacating, with two different meanings. In the meantime, until action is taken by the town board, the alley will remain temporarily closed. Arthur Carboneau also spoke out on “numerous” alleys in the town which are apparently not used and have been grassed over. He also stressed children are not permitted to play in the streets so they are confined to activities in grassed areas, such as the grassed alleys, then suddenly a “hot rodder” appears in one of these locations. Carboneau felt signs should be posted so persons knew if there was travel in these areas, also stressing a child safety factor. Permits Town plan commission president Wilbur Smith informed the town board of several law suits instigated by the commission on building violations and of several others pending, asking the town to take necessary action for appropriations for funding in the suits. He also inquired as to any knowledge of an alleged 12-unit apartment complex rumored as to be constructed on Front street, and as to whether a permit had been issued for the structure. Smith added a permit would be in direct violation due to many factors, including insufficient property spaceA Interested citizens appearing regarding a possible 12-unit building were Harry Gingerich, Floyd Gingerich and John W. Peters. William Beemer of the plan commission presented back to

given them by the building commissioner for improvements, one on a mobile home and one for a multiple dwelling. Beemer added both were improperly filled out and not legal due to specifications needed and unlisted. Neither application carried sketch drawings to scale, a needed requirement. It was noted the commission had to deprive these persons of their requests due to necessary requirements and since the town board hired and paid the commissioner, the commission felt they were the proper ones to notify Harry VanHemert as to the VanHemert, in turn, will need to contact the individuals involved. Beemer added that the mobile home variance request should be presented the zoning board of appeals, not the plart commission. Smith added that all violations on permits or applications would be reported to the town board for further action. t Other Business In other business, attorney Frey was instructed to advertise for gas and oil bids for the town and May 1 was set for opening of the bids. Frey reported on the April 14 meeting at Warsaw regarding annexation ofar&as one and two. The Hearing was held on motion to correct errors by remonstrators and no errors were found, therefore being overruled. Remonstrators of these two areas have 30-days to file an appeal and if none is filed, annexation will become effective as of that date. Board member Tom Prickett said he had an inquiry from persons in area 2, annexed in March, as to when garbage pickup would start. It was noted taxes are not collectable in this area until 1975, however, a survey will be made on the number of places to be served and a study made. Prickett also noted street problems on Pittsburg street between the restaurant and auto business. Street, sewer and water commissioner Harley Conrad said he already had this on his list of needed repairs. A brief discussion was held on possible relocating of a number of street lights in the town and availability of copies of the recently passed mobile home ordinance. Drainage Frey reported a meeting has been set for 1:30 p.m. on Tuesday, May 1, with the county commissioners for discussion on responsibility of drainage problems on Pickwick road near the section where two new businesses are now being built. A broken culvert running under the roadway has created water problems for some time, however, the apparent problem developed as to persoris responsible for the needed work.
