BACKGROUND:
Property description: The subject property is located approximately 200 meters east of College
Avenue on Cleburn Street in central Fayetteville. The property lies within the RSF-4 zoning district.
The owner proposes that the 0.45-acre lot be split into lots of 0.22 and 0.23 acres (Lots A and B,
respectively). The proposed Lot A does not have the required lot width of 70'. Lot B contains a
single family dwelling and detached accessory structure that do not have the required side setbacks.
Proposal: As depicted in Table 1,the applicant is requesting: (1)a 6.58' variance for a total 63.42'
frontage for a single family lot (proposed Lot A), rather than the 70' required in the RSF-4 zoning
district to bring the proposed lot into conformity; (2) a 2' variance for a total of 6' side setback for
the existing single family dwelling; and (3) an 8' variance for a total of 0' side setback for the
existing detached accessory structure to bring the existing nonconforming lot into conformity.

FINDINGS:
City of Fayetteville Unified Development Code
Section 156.02 ZONING REGULATIONS
Certain variances of the zoning regulations may be applied for as follows:
A. General Regulations/Application. A variance shall not be granted unless and
until an application demonstrates:
1. Special Conditions. That special conditions and circumstances exist which are
peculiar to the land, structure, or building involved and which are not applicable to
other lands, structures or buildings in the same district.
Finding: Special conditions do exist for this property that are not applicable to other
lands in the same district. The subject property is a relatively large lot for the
neighborhood and RSF-4 district(0.45 acre), and the applicant desires to split
the lot. However due to the existing lot being created and developed for single
family use prior to the adoption of the current zoning regulations, it was not
planned to be split in conformance with lot width requirements, and the side
setbacks for the existing single family dwelling and accessory structure are not
in conformance.
2. Deprivation of Rights. That literal interpretation of the provisions of the zoning
regulations would deprive the applicant of rights commonly enjoyed by other
properties in the same district under the terms of the zoning regulations.
Finding: Literal interpretation of zoning regulations would not allow creation of the new
proposed Lot A. However,the width of Lot A(63.42 feet)is consistent with the
size of most lots on the street and in the surrounding neighborhood. The
adjacent lot to the east is approximately 50'wide,the adjacent lot to the west is
approximately 90'wide,the adjacent lot to the south is approximately 58'wide,
and three lots immediately north of the site on the other side of Cleburn Street
are all approximately 60' wide. Creating a new 63' wide single family lot, as
desired by the applicant, will not result in an adverse change in community
character or aesthetic streetscape of the neighborhood. Any development on the
proposed Lot A will conform to all required setbacks within the RSF-4 zoning
district. Granting a variance for the existing nonconforming side setbacks of
the single family home and accessory structure on the new Lot B is an
administrative item to bring the lot into conformance.

Page 1.3
3. Resulting Actions. That the special conditions and circumstances do not result from
the actions of the applicant.
Finding: The original lot size is not the result of actions of the applicant. This lot was
created without compliance to the RSF-4 zoning district prior to ownership by
the applicant.
4. No Special Privileges. That granting the variance requested will not confer on the
applicant any special privilege that is denied by Zoning, Chapters 160-165, to other
lands, structures, or buildings in the same district.
Finding: Granting the requested lot width variance will not confer special privileges. The
property is zoned for single family use, and has been utilized for this purpose
for many years. The applicant will not be granted any special privileges denied
to other lands in the same district. All bulk and area regulations with the
exception of lot width are to be accommodated with the new proposed lot. The
variance to allow the existing nonconforming side setbacks is an administrative
item and is not a special privilege granted to the applicant.
5. Nonconforming Uses. No nonconforming use of neighboring lands, structures, or
buildings in the same district, and no permitted or nonconforming use of lands,
structures,orbuildings in other districts shall be considered grounds forthe issuance
of a variance.
Finding: No other nonconformities were considered as a basis of the findings stated in
this staff report.
Section 156.02 C. Consideration by the Board of Adjustment.
1. Bulk and Area.
Applications for variances of bulk and area requirements shall be considered by
and may be approved by the Board of Adjustment.
2. Public Hearing. A public bearing shall be held.
Finding: A public hearing is scheduled for Tuesday,July 5,2005.

3. Findings. The Board of Adjustment shall make the following findings:
a. Minimum Variance. That the reasons set forth in the application justify
the granting of the variance, and that the variance is the minimum variance
that will make possible the reasonable use of the land, building, or
structure.
Finding: The requested lot width and side setback variances are the minimum variances
necessary to accommodate the proposed lot and existing structures.
b. Harmony with General Purpose. The Board of Adjustment shall further make
a finding that the granting of the variance will be in harmony with the general
purpose and intent of Zoning,Chapters 160-165, and will not be injurious to the
neighborhood, or otherwise detrimental to the public welfare.
Finding: Granting the variance will be in harmony with the general purpose and intent of
zoning regulations and will not be injurious to the neighborhood or otherwise
detrimental to the public welfare.
C. Conditions and Safeguards. In granting any variance, the Board of
Adjustment may prescribe appropriate conditions and safeguards in
conformity with the zoning regulations.
Finding: Staff has recommended conditions for this request which are stated on page one
of this report.
d. No Variance Allowed. Under no circumstances shall the Board of
Adjustment grant a variance to allow a use not permissible under Zoning
in the district involved, or any use expressly or by implication prohibited
by the terms of the zoning regulations in said district.
Finding: The proposed use is a single family residence, a use permitted by right in the
RSF-4 zoning districts.

BACKGROUND:
Property description: The subject property is located south of Rockwood Trl. and west of Sequoyah
St. The property lies within the RSF-4 zoning district. Currently,there is an existing 2,351 square-
foot single-family home that was constructed in 1965. The existing home on the lot does not meet
the required 25' front setback from the rigbt-of-way. The home was permitted with a 25' setback in
1965, although the overhang is encroaching into the required setback by 4".
Proposal: As shown in Table 1,the applicant is requesting a 4"variance for a total of 24'8"of front
setback from the rigbt-of-way to bring the existing structure into compliance and a 7' variance for a
total of 18' of front setback from the right-of-way to allow for the addition of a front porch.

FINDINGS:
City of Fayetteville Unified Development Code
Section 156.02 ZONING REGULATIONS
Certain variances of the zoning regulations may be applied for as follows:
A. General Regulation s/Application. A variance shall not be,granted unless and
until an application demonstrates:
1. Special Conditions. That special conditions and circumstances exist which are
peculiar to the land, structure, or building involved and which are not applicable to
other lands, structures or buildings in the same district.
Finding: The home was permitted in 1965 with a 25' front setback, but either the home
was constructed closer to the ROW than permitted, or the overhang was not
addressed during the application process. Therefore,special conditions do exist
in regards to the requested 4"variance.
The subject and surrounding properties require a 25' setback by zoning
ordinance. No special conditions or circumstances exist,which are peculiar to
the land, structure, or building involved which are not applicable to
surrounding properties and buildings in the same district.
2. Deprivation of Rights. That literal interpretation of the provisions of the zoning
regulations would deprive the applicant of rights commonly enjoyed by other
properties in the same district under the terms of the zoning regulations.
Finding: Literal interpretation of zoning regulations would deprive the applicant of
rights that are commonly enjoyed by other properties in the same district. As a
nonconforming structure, the owner is restricted to the amount of alterations,
expansions and repairs that would be allowed under Chapter 164.12 of the
Unified Development Code.
The zoning regulations will not deprive the applicant of rights commonly
enjoyed by other surrounding properties. All structures in the RSF-4 zoning
district are required to meet a 25' front setback.
3. Resulting Actions. That the special conditions and circumstances do not result from
the actions of the applicant.
Finding: The request for the 4"variance is not a result of the current owners,but rather
a result of the original builder and/or applicant in 1965.
The request for a 7' variance is a result of the applicant's proposal tojad

porch to the front of the existing structure.
4. No Special Privileges. That granting the variance requested will not confer on the
applicant any special privilege that is denied by Zoning, Chapters 160-165, to other
lands, structures, or buildings in the same district.
Finding: Granting the requested 4" front building setback variance will not confer
special privileges. The existing structure was built within the required setback
in 1965.
Granting the requested 7' front building setback variance will confer special
privileges to the applicant that are denied by Zoning and would require a
variance request from other properties within the same district.
5. Nonconforming Uses. No nonconforming use of neighboring lands, structures, or
buildings in the same district, and no permitted or nonconforming use of lands,
structures,or buildings in other districts shall be considered grounds for the issuance
of a variance.
Finding: No other nonconformities were considered as a basis of the findings stated in
this staff report.
Section 156.02 C. Consideration by the Board of Adjustment.
1. Bulk and Area.
Applications for variances of bulk and area requirements shall be considered
by and may be approved by the Board of Adjustment.
2. Public Hearing. A public hearing shall be held.
Finding: A public hearing is scheduled for Tuesday,July 5,2005.
3. Findings. The Board of Adjustment shall make the following findings:
a. Minimum Variance. That the reasons set forth in the application
justify the granting of the variance, and that the variance is the
minimum variance that will make possible the reasonable use of the
land,building, or structure.
Finding: The requested 4" building setback variance is the minimum variance
necessary to bring the nonconforming structure into compliance.
The requested 7' front setback variance is the minimum variance
necessary to allow the construction of the proposed front porch.

Mr. Michael Andrews
Chair, Board of Adjustments
113 West Mountain Street
Fayetteville, AR 72701
Dear Mr. Andrews,
We, Mark and Lynne Boyer, owners of the property at 1004 E. Rebecca, request
a variance for the front setback requirement on this property. Specifically, we
request a 7' variance to the front (south) setback resulting in an 18' setback
instead of 25'.
We feel that this request meets the following criteria:
a) Special conditions exists: The structure was built in 1964, well before
the zoning ordinance. The 25' setback requirement is excessive for this
dead-end street. The steepness of the natural grade of the lot required
that the house be built in its current location. The front overhang
currently encroaches on the setback. Other houses on this street are in
violation of this setback.
b) Literal interpretation of the provisions of this ordinance would deprive the
applic-ants of the ability to add a front porch, thereby improving the front
facade of the house (see attached elevations). The fight to build with a
similar variance was granted to the neighbor to the east of this property.
c) This situation is not the result of actions of the property owner. The
placement of the house and the setback requirements currently preclude
our adding a front porch. These conditions are not the result of our
actions.
d) Granting this variance will not grant this property special privilege denied
to others. The properties along this block of Rebecca are similar in
placement to this one, and this property is consistent with the character
of its neighbors. Our request does not exceed similar non-conformities
that are typical in older neighborhoods of Fayetteville.
Th k for your consideration,
W � Y .

WRITTEN DESCRIPTIPN
Mark and Lynne Boyer, owners of the property at 1004 E. Rebecca,
Fayetteville, AR, request a 7' variance for the front (south) setback requirement
on their property.
The existing structure was built in 1964. The house currently has 2351
square feet of heated area. It is the applicants' desire to build a 98 square
foot porch addition to the front of the existing structure, thereby improving the
front facade of the house.
The proposed addition will encroach into the 25' setback by 7'.
