BZA approves 10-foot front-setback variance at 424 Bassett Rd for garage addition
Summary
The Bay Village BZA granted Francis Kelly a 10-foot front-setback variance to build a garage addition at 424 Bassett Rd; the board cited alignment with a neighbor and neighborhood pattern and voted 5-0 to approve.
Francis Kelly told the Bay Village Board of Zoning Appeals that his request for a 10-foot variance at 424 Bassett Rd would align his house with a neighbor and would allow space for an office and laundry room. The board considered neighborhood context and concluded the addition would not protrude beyond adjacent homes.
Board member Gina Crawford said the proposal "aligns with the neighbor’s house and it won’t stick out," and the motion to grant the variance (mover: Tricia Rhea; second: Jan Saurman) passed unanimously, 5-0. The motion specified the variance was granted in accordance with the plans and specifications submitted with the owner’s application.
