Summary of the decision

VA-00-12-001 — Felton and Shirley Jones

Request: Variances in R-2 zone to erect a single family residence as follows: 1. 20 ft. from front property line in lieu of 25 ft. 2. 20 ft from rear property line in lieu of 25 ft.

Decision: Approved

Hearing: The site is composed of three lots fronting on E. Story Rd. Normally, residentially lots have a short width along the road with a deep depth. The reverse is true with the subject site. The applicant is trying to build a house for a large family that will fit the shape of the lot. In doing so, they will incur a minor encroachment of five feet into the front and into the rear setback. This is an older subdivision consisting of older homes. The proposed new home will improve the character of the area. There was no opposition to this request.
