f.Growth Management System Designation: Rural Designated. g.Roads: Frontage along Neville Road (SR 1945) and McCauley Lane, a privately maintained road where primary vehicular ingress/egress is obtained. h.Water and Sewer Service:The property is not located within a primary utility service area meaning water and sewer service is provided by an individual well and septic system. Surrounding Land Uses: a.NORTH: Property developed for what appears to be residential purposes zoned RB; b.SOUTH: Undeveloped and developed property zoned RB; c.EAST: Neville Road (SR 1945) and property zoned RB; d.WEST: Undeveloped and developed property zoned RB. Proposal: As detailed within Attachment 1, the applicant has applied for a VARIANCE from the 40 ft. front yard/corner lot setback standards of the RB general use zoning district. Specifically, the applicant is requesting a 20 ft. reduction from the 40 ft. required setback off of the McCauley Lane right-of-way (i.e. observing a 20 ft. setback from the McCauley Lane right-of-way). If approved, a structure will be allowed to be 20 ft. from the edge of the McCauley Lane right-of- way versus the typically required 40 ft. setback per Section 3.3 of the UDO. The applicant is proposing to construct a new single-family residence on the property, making use of an existing septic system. The applicant argues they cannot comply with both the required 40 ft. setback from the McCauley Lane right-of-way and the required setback from the existing septic system as enforced by the Orange County Environmental Health – Well and Septic division. The applicant further argues the topography of the lot limits viable location(s) for the residence without creating compliance issues with other applicable land use regulations and Environmental Health standards. As previously indicated, if the variance is approved, the proposed residence would observe a 20 ft. setback from the McCauley Lane right-of-way. It should be noted even if vehicular ingress/egress (i.e. a driveway) was provided off of Neville Road (SR 1945) the required setback from the McCauley Lane right-of-way would still be 40 ft. per Section 3.3 of the UDO. ORDINANCE REQUIREMENTS: Per Section 3.3 development project(s) within the RB general use zoning district are required to adhere to the following dimensional requirement(s): a. Minimum Front/Corner lot (i.e. a parcel having frontage on 2 street rights-of-way) setback from right of way: 40 ft. b. Minimum Side and Rear yard setback from property line: 20 ft. The applicant complies with all applicable development standards allowing for the approval of a previously submitted plot plan denoting the development of a single-family residence with the exception of compliance with the required setback from the McCauley Lane right-of-way.
