Commission recommends approval of rear-setback variance at 84 Chigo Lane for owner pool
Summary
The commission recommended approval of a variance to reduce the rear setback to 0 feet to permit a pool and associated structures at 84 Chigo Lane, subject to conditions including an as-built survey and an easement/encroachment agreement.
The Columbia County Planning and Zoning Commission voted Sept. 4 to recommend approval of Variance VA25-0901, allowing a reduction of the rear building setback to 0 feet for a pool and associated structures at 84 Chigo Lane within the Chigo Highlands neighborhood.
Will (presenting staff) said the property is zoned R-4 and described site features including proximity to a lake, an existing retaining wall and a septic system located on the opposite side of the house. Staff recommended approval with conditions including an as-built survey to confirm the location of the proposed improvements relative to the lake/protected line, and an easement/encroachment agreement; those conditions were referenced in staff’s presentation.
The owner, Christopher Walker, and applicant Gary Bennett of Southern Civil Solutions LLC were present but did not offer additional public testimony. The commission moved to recommend approval with the staff conditions; the recommendation will be forwarded to the Board of Commissioners for final action.
