BZA grants six-month extension for variance in case 6531
Summary
Carroll County Board of Zoning Appeals approved a six-month extension for a variance in case 6531 at the board meeting, citing supply-chain delays and contractor workload stated in a written request.
The Carroll County Board of Zoning Appeals voted to grant a six-month extension for variance case 6531, a request the applicant said was needed because contractor schedules and supply-chain delays have prevented plan completion.
The extension was requested in a letter from Jonathan Nussbaum asking for the maximum allowable time after the applicant said they had waited for variance approval and a health-department-approved septic plan before starting architectural work. The applicant requested a 12-month extension; board members noted a prior six‑month period had already been granted and moved to approve an additional six months.
Board members discussed the lot and site conditions during deliberations. Staff identified the property location as near Enoff Drive and described the lot as “odd shaped,” with the proposed barn-and-living-quarters located on the flattest portion of the parcel.
A motion to extend the timeframe by an additional six months was made and seconded; the board voted voice approval. No roll-call tally was recorded in the hearing transcript. The board chair instructed that the extension takes effect as the board’s oral decision and that any written decision would follow per standard procedure.
The board moved on to subsequent cases after the extension vote.
