Ae
Case File #00-001 Keith H0rkey of Keyland Homes is requesting a variance to
the required side yard setback adjacent to a residential district in the C-5
(Business Park) District for the construction of an addition to an existing
building on the property located at 17021 Fish Point Road SE.
Planning Coordinator Jane Kansier presented the Planning Report dated January 24,
2000, on file in the office of the Planning Department.
The Planning Department received an application for a variance to allow the construction
of an addition to the existing Keyland Homes building on the properly located at 17021
Fish Point Road. They are requesting a 55' variance to permit a structure to be setback
20' from the side yard adjacent to a Residential District rather than the required 75 feet.
Staff felt the proposed request appeared to meet the hardship criteria in that the greater
setback is a result of the annexation and rezoning of the adjacent property, and the
location of the existing building limits the options for the placement of an addition. The
staff therefore recommended approval of this request.
Comments from the public:
Kevin Horkey, Keyland Homes, explained the company needs additional storage would
like to expand and this is the only way to do it.
