Summary

The board approved a variance allowing David and Theresa Terrell to construct a 30'x40' outbuilding 20 feet from the rear property line on the family’s 1.298-acre lot; applicant said the location preserves backyard space for grandchildren.

David Terrell told the board he sought permission to build a 30'x40' outbuilding for personal storage on his 1.298-acre property at 12941 State Route 122 South, noting a rise in the backyard and that the chosen site preserves yard space for grandchildren. The board approved the variance under Section 1404.01 D (1–7) after hearing that the building would be for personal use and not commercial storage.

Board members confirmed the siting and approved the motion by roll call. The variance allows a larger structure (1,200 sq ft) and a reduced 20-foot rear setback in place of the usual 50-foot requirement; staff will record the findings in the case file.
