BA96-9 - ERIC & ELIZABETH BRYAN
79 N. OLIVE
The first item on the agenda was the request submitted by Eric & Elizabeth Bryan for property located at 79 N.
Olive. The property is zoned R-2, Medium Density Residential and the request is for a variance from the required
building setbacks.
The request was for a variance from the required 25' front setback of 25' allowing a 7'2" variance.
Staff recommended approval of the variance subject to the following conditions
Approval of a property line adjustment for adding 8' on the north side and 19' on the
south side.
2. Construction of the house in accordance with submitted plans.
3. Initiation of construction within 12 months.
4. No portion of the proposed structure shall obstruct any utility easement.
Mr. Perkins noted that the existing structure was nonconforming and the code would not allow the board to allow a
more nonconforming structure. Mr. Lane noted the variance was contingent upon a property line adjustment. Mr.
Bryan stated the adjoining properties were "family" owned and therefore a property line adjustment would be easily
obtained.
(Mr. Nickle arrived at 4:00)
Mr. Nickle proposed that the request be amended to a variance, "...up to 8'."
MOTION
Ms. Orton made a motion to grant the variance as amended "up to 8'."
Mr. Nickle seconded the motion.
Upon roll call, the motion passed with a unanimous vote of 4-0-0.
