Homeowners request variance to replace pool enclosure inside side‑yard setback
Summary
Frank and Linda Wise sought a two‑foot variance to allow replacement of an existing pool screen enclosure that encroaches into the side‑yard setback; applicants said the existing enclosure is failing and they intend a like‑for‑like replacement with no change to footprint.
Tampa — Frank and Linda Wise told the land use hearing officer that their existing pool enclosure is failing and needs like‑for‑like replacement. Staff presented Variance 26‑02‑376 seeking a reduction in the side‑yard setback for a pool cage that lacks a solid roof and therefore is subject to side‑setback requirements.
The applicant said the current aluminum enclosure is not economically repairable and that contractors would replace and correct subsidence issues. The contractor confirmed the intent is to rebuild within the same footprint and to correct failing connections to the slab. No residents registered opposition at the hearing and staff had no additional findings to present.
The hearing officer closed the matter for decision; a written decision will be issued on the standard administrative timeline.
