LOT 16. ELKHORN ESTATES. Arthur C. Hvde, Applicant.
applicant is reguesting two setback variances:
Staff stated the
1) A fifteen foot setback instead of a twenty-five foot setback along
Fall River Lane;
2) A fifteen foot setback instead of a thirty foot setback from the
Fall River.
Steve Wright/Van Horn Engineering & Surveying, submitted a sketch delineating
the two-story log structure's footprint, and outlined the applicant's reasons
for reguesting setback variances:
1) The proposed building site is situated to allow for access to the
existing sewer line;
2) The applicant has attempted to retain the site's existing trees;
3) The applicant has attempted to refrain from building in or near the
area which appears to be a former stream bed.
Member Sager questioned design considerations that were taken into account,
whether this was a self-imposed hardship, and suggested that building and
site design alternatives were available. Chairman Habecker suggested that
building design alternatives could reduce the encroachments.
Member Newsom stated that this is a difficult lot and moved to grant the
setback variances, as requested. The motion failed for lack of a second.
Member Sager moved to grant the following variances:
1) Allow for a setback from Fall River Lane (street property line) of
15 feet;
2) Allow for a setback from Fall River (high water mark) of 25 feet.
Member Garrett seconded the motion, and it passed unanimously.
DISCUSSION:
Member Sager stated that it would be more convenient, considering work
schedule, if the Board of Adjustment meetings were held at 8:30 A.M. After
discussion, there was a consensus among members to continue to hold the
meetings at 9:00 A.M.
