VARIANCE REQUEST-GOOSE POINTE-DENNIS BAIZE

Mr. Dennis Baize is requesting a side setback variance to his residential lot located in the Goose Point Section of the Deer Creek area. Currently, Mr. Baize’s house is built approximately 11 feet from the property line. He wishes to replace an existing deck with a constructed “sun room”. The construction of the sun room will bring the permanent constructed structure to within 7 feet of his side property line. Attached is a letter of request for variance by Mr. Baize, and a letter from the owner of the property that the setback encroachment would be on. Also attached is a drawing of the proposed setback prepared by a registered land surveyor. At this time, staff defers recommendation due to the review by Codes Administrator and his recommendation based on fire protection.

A motion was made by Mayor Graham and seconded by Earl Dean to grant a variance for the side setback of the northern property line from the required 10 foot setback to 7 feet, a 3 foot variance. Ayes (6) Dean, Graham, Cunningham, Moser, Harrison, and Burgess. Absent (1) Mayberry.
