Orange County — Board of Zoning Adjustment

VA-18-03-004 — ZELLWIN FARMS

Request: Variances in the I-4 zoning district as follows: 1) To allow a rear setback (north property line) of 0 ft. in lieu of 10 ft. 2) To allow a side setback (west property line) of 6 ft. in lieu of 25 ft.

Decision: Approved

Hearing: Staff stated the variances were for existing warehouse buildings that were not meeting required setbacks per the I-4 requirements. The applicant submitted for a lot split to rectify this, however the neighbor was not willing to sign off on the quitclaim deed to allow for lot line reconfigurations. Therefore the variances was the only option the applicant had. The applicant agreed with staff's presentation and mentioned this was their last resort to fixing the setback issue. No one spoke in favor or in opposition of the application. BZA agreed the request met the variance criteria and the variances were necessary to allow the buildings to remain. The BZA unanimously approved the request.
