Orange County — Board of Zoning Adjustment

VA-16-01-130 — MARGARITA FLEITES

Request: Variance in the R-1 zoning district to allow existing addition to single family residence to remain 22 ft. from rear property line in lieu of 25 ft. (Note: Permit was issued in error in 2008. Addition was constructed with incorrect rear setback. This application allows for the 22 ft. rear setback to remain instead of the required 25 ft. rear setback.).

Decision: Approved

Hearing: The applicant was issued a permit in error in 2008. She commenced construction of her addition based on a 20 ft. rear yard setback. The permit expired. In 2015, she attempted to re-commence the balance of the construction and was told her actual rear setback is 25 ft. The BZA concluded the request was not the doing of the applicant and approved the variance. There was no opposition to this request.
