Avon BZA grants Dearth 2-foot side-yard variance to extend driveway for child-safe play area
Summary
The board approved a 2-foot side-yard setback variance for Harrison Dearth at 3491 Williams Court to extend the driveway and create a continuous 22-foot surface the applicant said is needed for safe play for his 5- and 3-year-old children.
Harrison Dearth received approval June 3 for a 2-foot side-yard setback variance to extend his driveway at 3491 Williams Court. The variance reduced the required side-yard from 5 feet to 3 feet to allow a uniform 22-foot surface that the applicant said will serve as a safer play area for his two young children and ease vehicle movements.
Dearth told the board he would have requested the extension during the builder approval process had he understood the process at the time; he described the existing layout as requiring cars to be pulled out to access the driveway. Kurt Schatschneider moved to approve the 2-foot variance and Chauncey Miller seconded; the motion passed with all members voting in the affirmative.
The record notes an Exhibit 1 drawing attached to the application. No audience comments or opposing testimony were recorded.
