Summary

Applicants associated on the agenda as Suzanne/Susan and Gerald Mahan Jr. were granted a variance to place an accessory/storage building within a front yard at 171 Auden Lane; applicants said a previous structure was storm‑destroyed and they intended to rebuild on the same footprint.

The Zoning Board of Adjustments approved a request related to 171 Auden Lane on July 16, allowing a residential accessory or storage building within a front yard and a reduced front‑yard setback. Applicants described a prior apartment structure that storm damage destroyed and said they plan to place a new storage building on the existing slab footprint with limited new concrete to raise it.

Board members reviewed photos and discussed the existing slab and demolition status. The applicants said portions of the slab remain and that the proposed building footprint would match the old structure’s location. The board moved and seconded to grant the variance and voted in favor; staff was directed to record approval in plan and zoning.
