1036 Old White Plains Road, Mamaroneck, New
York.
The wall still remains in an unsightly condition,
and I would appreciate your Board taking such ac-
tion as will be necessary to remove the wall, as
the same violates the Town Zoning Law, and was
built without permission."

Tannous last year and informed the Board that as of this Spring
the property had not been filled-in in spite of Mrs. Tannous's

Mamaroneck, and myself called on Mrs. Tannous
with reference to a cement block wall which you
had erected at the rear of your property. At that

since a solid wall or fence cannot be more than
four feet high as called for in the Town Ordinance,
unless by special permission of the Town Board,
In your letter, dated October 11, 1957, you wrote
the Town Board that you had not completed filling
and grading this lot.
Upon inspection today, I find that your propertyhas
not been filled sufficiently so that the wall as itnow
stands is more than four feet above the ground. This
is a violation of the Town Ordinance. You are here-
by directed to lower the wall so that it will not be
more than four feet high."

ter and to report thereon to this Board.
