Board approves 5.5‑foot setback variance for metal building at 1576 Smoky View Drive
Summary
Jefferson County zoning board approved a 5.5‑foot side‑setback variance for a metal building at 1576 Smoky View Drive after the property owner said the encroachment was a permitting mistake.
The Jefferson County Board of Zoning approved a 5.5‑foot variance for a metal building at 1576 Smoky View Drive after the owner told the board the structure was placed too close to the property line by mistake.
At the meeting, the applicant explained the error and asked the board to grant relief. “We just need the 5.5 foot, variance. That was my mistake when I came down to, to get the permit,” the applicant said. Board members asked clarifying questions about the slab and existing conditions before moving to vote. Commissioner (S4) moved to approve the variance and Commissioner (S6) seconded; the motion passed by voice vote.
The board recorded no public opposition at the meeting and no additional conditions were added to the approval. The variance will allow the existing metal building, erected on a preexisting concrete slab, to remain where it sits.
