Orange County — Board of Zoning Adjustment

VA-16-07-077 — JENNY PIERCE

Request: Variance in the R-2 zoning district to allow a lot width of 75 ft. in lieu of 80 ft. for a duplex. (Note: Structure is existing. This is the result of code enforcement action.)

Decision: Approved

Hearing: Staff gave a brief presentation on the case and showed photographs and the location of the other duplexes on the same street. The applicant stated that the structure was built in the late 1950s before zoning and lot width requirements. The applicant further stated that they cannot pull permits until they obtain BZA approval. The BZA confirmed with Code Enforcement staff that the upcoming Code Enforcement Board hearing will be cancelled if the BZA approves the variance. Staff received no commentaries favor of or against the application. There was no opposition at the hearing.
