Avon BZA approves 15-foot rear-yard variance for sun porch at 1881 Center Road
Summary
Dale and Melina Phillips received approval for a 15-foot rear-yard variance to build a sun porch at 1881 Center Road; applicant noted the rear property abuts commercial fencing near Avon Commons/Home Depot and argued the context justified reduced distance.
The board approved a 15-foot rear-yard variance for Dale and Melina Phillips at 1881 Center Road to permit construction of an enclosed sun porch. The request sought relief from the 50-foot rear-yard requirement to a 35-foot proposal under C.O.1262.04(d)(4).
Phillips told the board the rear property backs to commercial fencing belonging to the Avon Commons shopping center (near Home Depot), creating a residential/commercial interface that informed the request. Board members voted to approve the variance on a motion from Bill Hricovec, seconded by Chauncey Miller; the motion carried unanimously.
Exhibit 1 drawings were referenced in the record; the approval included standard conditions where municipal easements or access could be affected by construction.
