Summary of the decision

SE-02-02-013 — Rocco & Megan English

Request: In R-1A zone ( single family-7500 sq. ft. lots) to construct a detached accessory building with the following Variances: 1. In front yard in lieu of rear; 2. 1264 sq. ft. in size in lieu of 500 sq. ft.

Decision: Approved

Hearing: The applicant wants to add to their existing accessory building. The existing building is 756 sq. ft. They want to increase the size to 1264 sq. ft. The proposed uses are a 2 car garage, a powder room and a utility room. Two (2) neighbors spoke in opposition. They had concerns about the future use of the building. They felt the building would be used as an apartment. They also felt the septic tank would be too close to a drinking well. The BZA imposed conditions that ensured the use would be ancillary to the residence. Staff received 18 commentaries in favor and 9 in opposition.
