Votes at a glance: appeals-board motion denies variance request
Summary
The appeals board formally denied the variance request after deliberations, with a motion to deny made by Beth and seconded; staff will prepare minutes and advised the applicant of appeal options to district court.
At the conclusion of deliberations, a board member moved to deny the variance request and a second followed. The motion was described on the record: "I make a motion that this variance request be denied based on it does not meet all 5 of the criteria required to for this board to grant a variance." The board recorded 'aye' votes and the motion carried.
The board identified the statutory five-part test for variances as the controlling standard, noting the requirement that any hardship be specific to the property and the board's inability to grant relief when the statutory elements are not all satisfied. Staff will prepare draft minutes and the applicant was told the next legal remedy would be to challenge the decision in district court.
