The board split the application into two motions after extensive public comment and discussion about site location, neighborhood deed restrictions, topography and drainage. Board members said they lacked sufficient information and were concerned about precedence in the subdivision.

\"There is no building going in front of that house on Bryce Canyon. That is not happening,\" said Gary Patterson, the applicant’s agent, explaining the proposed placement of a cottage-style mother-in-law unit and saying the occupant has Parkinson’s disease. Patterson said the structure would sit more than 100 feet from the street and described topographical challenges at the rear of the lot.

Neighbors urged denial and asked for clearer site documentation. Paul Bartel, a Colby Hill resident, cited the subdivision’s recorded restrictions and read requirements including that \"no building shall be erected or altered, replaced or permitted other than one detached single-family dwelling\" and that mother-in-law quarters be a maximum of 700 square feet and attached to the principal residence.

Charles Williams, a nearby resident, urged the board to deny the request and said an 1,800-square-foot structure \"is way larger than what is permitted\" and could set an undesirable precedent. Chris Dupuy, whose property backs the site, raised concerns about drainage and asked whether the lot is served by city sewer or septic; the applicant later said the property is served by city sewer and would be required to comply with city sewer rules.

After discussion, the board voted to deny the front-yard setback variance and then denied the size variance, with motions citing lack of demonstrated hardship and insufficient site documentation. Board members advised the applicant to submit clearer site plans and documentation if they seek future consideration.","The Central Board of Adjustments denied two variance requests for 6511 Bryce Canyon Drive — to allow an accessory dwelling in the front yard and to increase ADU size from 1,000 to 1,800 square feet — citing insufficient information and neighborhood concerns.",{"_33":88,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":89,"_41":90,"_43":91,"_45":92,"_47":93,"_49":94,"_51":95,"_53":96,"_55":56,"_57":58,"_59":97,"_61":62,"_63":64,"_65":98,"_67":68,"_69":70,"_71":68,"_72":73,"_74":73},6184152,"Central Board of Adjustments approves one-year permit window for accessory structure at 14935 Glen Drive",258,140000,398000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=5092878-413b0542810c2e527acf876ca7a12dc7&start=140&end=398","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/5092878-413b0542810c2e527acf876ca7a12dc7/thumbnail_140000.jpg","/articles/6184152/Central/East-Baton-Rouge-Parish/Louisiana/Central-Board-of-Adjustments-approves-one-year-permit-window-for-accessory-structure-at-14935-Glen-Drive","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6184152-07946b4c555adf9e9990aef0b0a64c32/orig.mp4?Expires=1770430113&Signature=XXfueBzdejyPvRUSW-UMEr6pck9jdxrVaTtSQu7HXsvqbgGJ3e8e2dX299oHheETDYwCyvczJtaaON-oz8hfGYIT87nqLfcNw-BF98C459dFVRa7-9BNotjLgaW9S4eriHLgfV394-TlV8PdrzcrKZkGUJGeeeQb3s3RYXsSFbkdDryXoQJRwNPqPVCwdQVo7SyQ0kJk-d1MUaCtl3kmWyIkmp~jwoiLVGfBgRDBtrVZcgFg76Rou1DvLFAUlXUKXHAIsNIs~vrLLdAhhozVWk4Ck3Xh~7YfJGmt13X6TLZYn12nsFM2Y6EawxYE8fDsZp6ymboGQ56s7MyC-sxZAg__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","Central Board of Adjustments members voted to approve a variance allowing an accessory structure to be constructed before the primary residence at 14935 Glen Drive, with a condition that a building permit be pulled within one year.

The variance grants a limited exception to the city’s zoning and development rules for a half-acre lot in the Sheraton Place subdivision. Board members said the time-limited condition is intended to ensure that the primary residence is started and the accessory structure does not become a permanent, stand-alone dwelling.

\"My name is Trenton Bouquet. My address is 14935 Glen. I'm trying to build an accessory structure before my primary structure,\" said Trenton Bouquet, the applicant, describing the need for space to store furniture and a second vehicle while the main house is under construction.

Board members asked for a firm timeline. The board set a condition requiring the applicant to pull a building permit for the primary residence within one year of the variance approval. After a roll call vote, the motion to approve the variance with that one-year permit condition passed.

No members of the public spoke in opposition during the public-comment period for this item. The board asked staff to follow up with Mr. Torres regarding the file and to ensure the permit condition is monitored.","The Central Board of Adjustments approved a variance allowing an accessory structure to be built before the primary residence at 14935 Glen Drive, conditioned on pulling a building permit within one year.","actionData","errors"]
