Orange County — Board of Zoning Adjustment

VA-17-07-059 — KAMAL EL FAGRICH

Request: Variances in the A-2 zoning district as follows: 1) To place a mobile home on a lot with .15 acres in size in lieu of 2 acres; and 2) To place mobile home on a lot with 50 ft. of frontage in lieu of 100 ft.

Decision: Approved

Hearing: Staff gave a presentation on the case and showed the location of mobile homes and single family homes in relation to the site. The applicant stated they purchased the lot to place a mobile home on it, and stated there was a mobile home on the lot previously. The BZA observed the reason for this hearing was because the lots on the street do not conform with the zoning. The BZA was concerned with the percentage of deviation, but felt that: no special privilege is being granted, this is the minimum possible variance, and the precedent has already been set. Staff received no commentaries in favor of the application and 1 in opposition. There was no opposition at the hearing. The BZA approved the variance.
