<br />. <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />Planning Commission Resolution 579-99 <br />Leon Variance <br />June 2, 1999 <br />Page 3 <br /> <br />4. Granting a variance to allow a three-season porch or other type ofliving space addition <br />would not be a special privilege--most properties in this district either have similar types of <br />additions or have the space to construct such additions. <br /> <br />5. The variance requested is the minimum variance which would alleviate the hardship in that <br />the property owners wish to replace an existing deck with the enclosed living space <br />addition. If the addition were to be constructed observing the proper setbacks, it would <br />only be seven feet deep--not enough room for a table and chairs. The five foot variance is <br />the minimum variance that would alleviate the hardship. <br /> <br />6. The purpose of the variance provision in the Code is to give relief to property owners <br />seeking to improve their properties yet are unable to do so because of zoning code <br />requirements and factors beyond their control. Granting this variance for a living space <br />addition would not be materially detrimental to the purpose of this Title or to other <br />property in the same zone. <br /> <br />7. A living space addition of such a limited size ( 120 square feet) at the reduced side yard <br />setback would not impair a supply of light or increase congestion, nor would it increase <br />the danger of fire or endanger the public safety or diminish property values. <br /> <br />Adopted this 2nd day of June, 1999. <br /> <br />~.'?~ <br /> <br />Jerry Peters , ChaIrperson <br /> <br />ATTEST: <br /> <br /> <br />rL----- <br /> <br />Rick <br /> <br />(SEAL ) <br /> <br />N ;'DATA\f;Rot :I'S\CO;\IDE VDE \'C,\SES\5 53-99\579-99I'C, R ES <br />
