Summary

Board granted a setback variance for a 96-foot-wide lot in the Pauline Banks Subdivision, restoring the 25-foot setback standard that previously applied to neighboring lots and enabling a planned build.

Kenny, representing the property owners in the Pauline Banks Subdivision, asked the board to restore a 25-foot setback for a second lot that previously received a variance two years earlier. He said the lot is only 96 feet wide and that the change to 50-foot setbacks makes the parcel unbuildable without relief. "I'm not asking for anything more than just what it was when we got the variance initially," Kenny told the board, explaining the request sought to match the earlier relief the subdivision had received.

Board members noted the subdivision dates to 1977 and that the lots are of record; members referenced prior variances and compatibility with existing neighborhood patterns when approving the variance. The motion to grant the setback relief was moved, seconded and approved by voice vote. The applicant thanked members and the chair congratulated the family connection to the subdivision name.
