APPEAL 87-5 - SETBACK VARIANCE
MIKE WALKER - 3186 KATHERINE
The only item of consideration was a request submitted by Mike Walker
10 to vary the side setback on the northeast corner from the required
8" to 5'. The property is zoned R-1, Low Density Residential District.
Mills advised she would not be able to vote on this even in case of
a tie vote.
Mike price representing Mr. Walker stated the house was built approx-
imately 3 years ago. He said a survey had been done on the house
when it was first built by Don Kemp. Mr. Price explained the Walkers
wanted to sell their home and the financial institution required a
survey which showed the home to be into the required setback. He
said the problem was they could not get title insurance without a
waiver from the Board of Adjustment.
Tompkins asked what the square footage of the lot was, and Mr. Price
said the square footage of the home was approximately 1,800 sq. ft.
Mr. Price said he was sure the buildable area was under 40%, and George
Faucette added that subdivision had some green belt areas that helped
the intensity some.
The public hearing was closed and discussion returned to Board members.
