Summary

The Brentwood Board of Zoning Appeals on July 21 approved a request to build a 367-square-foot detached accessory structure at 386 Grovehurst Lane in the Annandale subdivision, after staff recommended approval with four conditions and no public opposition was recorded.

The Brentwood Board of Zoning Appeals voted unanimously July 21 to approve an application to build a 367-square-foot detached accessory structure at 386 Grovehurst Lane in the Annandale Subdivision Section 5.

The structure, proposed for the rear buildable area of Lot 55 and zoned OSRD, will be wood with brick accents matching the existing house, a shingle roof and an approximate height of 19 feet. Staff told the board the brick for the fireplace will match the house and the wood will be painted white to match trim and gutters. The existing house is approximately 38 feet tall.

“Allison” (staff) told the board that “there are 4 conditions of approval and staff recommends approval of the detached accessory structure subject to all building codes and staff notes.” The board’s vote was recorded as unanimous in favor; no public comments or written correspondence opposing the request were reported during the hearing.

Board members confirmed the application details shown in the packet and asked no substantive follow-up questions. The applicant’s representative, Cody Key, came forward and identified himself as with Southern Ridge Construction while the agenda listed the applicant as Southern Edge Construction; the transcript records this naming difference but provides no further clarification.

The board approved the request by motion and voice vote with no recorded nay votes. The approval is subject to the four staff conditions and compliance with applicable building codes. The minutes record no conditions or variances beyond those noted by staff.

At the meeting’s close staff announced the next BZA meeting is scheduled for Aug. 18 and that the Tennessee Association of Planning Officials (TAPA) will hold a fall conference Oct. 20–22 in Cool Springs; complete details will be circulated to board members. The board then adjourned.
