The Fort Wayne Board of Zoning Appeals approved two separate variance petitions from A Mother's Hope, Inc. to operate homeless shelters at 5322 N Clinton St (UVAR-2025-0060) and 5522 N Clinton St (UVAR-2025-0061). Vice Chair Lakisha Woods opened both hearings; in each case an applicant representative spoke and Connie Haas-Zuber moved approval based on Findings of Fact, with Ron Howard seconding. Each motion carried 5-0.
The minutes record that, for each application, "0 spoke in support, 0 spoke in opposition, and 3 had questions regarding the proposal."
