Board permits deck within setback at Owens Shore property
Summary
The Zoning Board approved an area variance allowing a freestanding deck 40 feet from the lot line at 6957 Owens Shore, finding no evidence it would block neighbors’ views and accepting the EAF determination.
The Town of Huron Zoning Board approved May 12 an area variance for a freestanding deck at 6957 Owens Shore. Applicant Joe Davis requested a deck located 40 feet from the lot line where the Resort district requires a 75-foot front-yard setback; the board accepted the SEQRA paperwork and, after findings, voted 7–0 to approve.
Davis told the board he does not believe the deck will block neighbors’ views; the LWRP recommendation was read and the public hearing was closed before the board moved to approve. Debra Phillips moved to approve and Gordon Smith seconded; the board recorded a unanimous vote. The board’s minutes list the variance as approved "as submitted."
