Codes have no meaning unless they are enforced except in cases of exceptional hardship, and this is not such a case. The code is established for a set of purposes that need to be pursued.

Here are some of the reasons why these variances should be denied. 1. Such a decrease in setback would set a precedent for future development within the neighborhood and near-by residential neighborhoods and could lead to more variances of all types. 2. The developer knew what the setbacks were when they bought the property. Their action of purchasing the property came with the assumption of due diligence. 3. The current property set back is designed to promote a unified appearance to the neighborhood. Ther variances will upset the historic look of the streets and look out of place. 4. The requested 5 foot setbacks do not leave room for the eaves of a roof. Water runoff may land on the neighboring property promoting fast run-off and pave the way to flooding which is already a problem in this area. The Public Hearing is scheduled before the Board of Adjustment on July 11, 2022 (next Monday). Case Number: C-15-2022-0058 "The applicant is requesting a variance(s) from the Land Development Code Section 25-2-492 (Site Development Regulations) from setback requirements to: a) decrease the minimum rear yard setback from 10 feet (required) to 5 feet (requested) for the existing non-complying primary residence to …

I am writing to express my opposition to Variance Request A. This variance is asking to lessen the amount of distance that may be built upon, in relation to the edge of the property lines. The code is currently set at 25 feet. The applicant wants to lessen this distance to only 7 feet from the eastern property line, and 13 feet from the southern one.
