Request
A request for 1) an 843 square foot variance from the required 4,000 square foot lot size, as described in Section 35-310.01, to allow a lot size to be 3,157 square feet and 2) a 10' variance from the required 20' minimum rear setback, also described in Section 35-310.01, to allow a structure to be built 10' away from the rear property line.
Executive Summary
The applicant is requesting variances from the rear setback and from the minimum lot size in order to build a new single-family home on the lot. The subject property has been vacant since before 1980. Due to the antiquated, substandard lots within the district, the applicant must obtain variances or to rezone in order to develop on this lot due to the size of the lot.
These lots within the district were once converted from the 1938 "C" Apartment Districts, converted and rezoned to what is currently is: "R-4" Single-Family District. Because of this, the lot is considered a nonconforming lot of record. The applicant will need a variance for the rear setback and requested a clean slate for the property prior to development to include a lot size variance.
