Box 807 Stephens City, VA 22655 RE: VARIANCE #08-99; P.I.N. 86D-3-2-41 Dear Ms. Barrett: COUNTY of FREDERICK Department of Planning and Development 540/665-5651 FAX: 540/ 678-0682 This letter is to confirm action taken by the Frederick County Board of Zoning Appeals at their meeting of October 19, 1999. Your Variance Application, #08-99 of Karen B. Barrett for an 8-foot rear yard setback variance for an existing deck, was approved. Please bear in mind that this approval covers only the existing deck and does not apply to any other uses. This property is located at 122 Ian Court and is identified with Property Identification Number 86D-3-2-41 in the Opequon Magisterial District. If you have any questions regarding this action, please feel free to call this office. Sincerely, Amy M. Lohr Planner I AML/ch cc: Frederick Co. Building Inspections Dept. Mr. Charles Sochin O:Wgendas\BZ4WPPR_DEN.LTRUC_Barrett.apr.wpd 107 North Kent Street • Winchester, Virginia 22601-5000 • BZA REVIEW DATE: 10/19/99 VARIANCE #08-99 KAREN B. BARRETT LOCATION: The property is located at 122 Ian Court. MAGISTERIAL DISTRICT: Opequon PROPERTY ID NUMBER: 86D-3-2-41 PROPERTY ZONING & USE: Zoned RP (Residential Performance) District; Land use - Residential ADJOINING PROPERTY ZONING & USE: Zoned RP (Residential Performance); Uses: Residential and Vacant VARIANCE: 8-foot rear yard setback variance for an existing deck. REASON FOR VARIANCE: The applicant states that the deck was accidently constructed beyond the building restriction line. STAFF COMMENTS: Within the RP (Residential Performance) Zoning District, the required rear yard setback is 25 feet from the property line. The existing deck was constructed 17 feet from the rear building restriction line; therefore, a variance of eight feet has been requested. The deck was constructed without a building permit. The subject property does not appear to be affected by any extraordinary conditions or features that would preclude conformance with all applicable setback standards. The developer obtained zoning approval for a building permit on June 10, 1996 to construct a dwelling on the parcel. This permit indicates a rear setback of 27 feet. Frederick County Inspections Department records indicate that the deck attached to the rear of the home was not included with the dwelling permit. The Virginia Uniform Statewide Building Code states that a permit is required when constructing, enlarging, altering, repairing, or demolishing a building or structure. The applicant neglected to obtain such a permit for the deck, thereby creating 0 Karen B. Barrett Variance #08-99 Page 2 September 29, 1999 the possibility for the setback encroachment, which would have otherwise been detected during the zoning review process. It is important to note that the applicant in this case was the developer of the property. STAFF CONCLUSION: The Code of Virginia, Section 15.2-2309(2) states that no variance shall be authorized by the board unless it finds that a) strict application of the Ordinance would produce an undue hardship approaching confiscation; b) that such hardship is not shared generally by other properties in the same zoning district and the same vicinity, and; c) that the authorization of such variance will not be of substantial detriment to adjacent property, and that the character of the district will not be changed by the granting of the variance. Staff is of the opinion that the requested variance does not satisfy the aforementioned criteria. As stated, the subject property involves no extraordinary feature or condition that would preclude conformance with all applicable setback standards. Furthermore, to strictly apply the setback standards in this case would not produce a hardship approaching confiscation of the property. The absence of a deck does not eliminate either the functional use of the residence or the reasonable use of the property.
