Board OKs height and setback variances for proposed Fairfield Inn on Delaware Parkway
Summary
The board granted variances to allow a four-story Fairfield Inn at 10840 Delaware Pkwy to exceed the 35-ft height limit (proposed ~55'9") and to encroach into side and rear setbacks for shared parking; approval conditioned on a recorded access agreement and completion of 107th Ave work.
The Crown Point Board of Zoning Appeals approved two related variances to permit the proposed Fairfield Inn at 10840 Delaware Parkway to be larger and closer to property lines than the city's B-3 standards allow. Representative Greg Lorig said the hotel would be four stories and approximately "55' 9 ¼\" tall," exceeding the ordinance by about 20 feet. Staff recommended approval and noted that a Hampton Inn immediately to the south previously received a height variance in 2022.
Board members discussed the need for shared parking and cross-access; staff recommended that, if granted, a cross-access and parking agreement be submitted and recorded with the city. John Marshall moved to approve Petition 26-07 adopting the Findings of Fact; the motion carried unanimously. The board then approved Petition 26-08, adopting the Findings of Fact and making approval contingent on a shared access agreement between the two hotels and completion of 107th Ave from Broadway to Delaware Parkway.
