REQUIREMENT UDO SUPPORTING EVIDENCE Staff BOA FINDINGS: In accordance with Section 2.10.3 of the UDO, the Board of Adjustment shall also consider the following before the application for a VARIANCE can be approved. Unnecessary hardship would result from the strict application of the Ordinance. It shall not be necessary to demonstrate that, in the absence of the variance, no reasonable use can be made of the property. Sec 2.10.3 (A) Application package inclusive including: 1. Narrative; 2. Exhibit 3 septic map; 3. Exhibit 6 boundary survey; 4. Exhibit 8 RMA and plat denoting McCauley Lane right-of-way; 5. Exhibit 10 proposed plot plan The location of the existing septic system limits potential areas allowing for the re- development of the property. The location of the McCauley Lane right-of-way also restricts locations where a new residence can be located. The topography of the lot does not lend itself to the house being further from McCauley Lane or the septic system without creating additional compliance issues with land use and environmental health regulations. Staff agrees. The hardship results from conditions that are peculiar to the property, such as location, size, or topography. Hardships resulting from personal circumstances, as well as hardships resulting from conditions that are common to the neighborhood or general public, may not be the basis for granting a variance. Sec 2.10.3 (B) Application package inclusive including: 1. Narrative; 2. Exhibit 3 septic map; 3. Exhibit 6 boundary survey; 4. Exhibit 8 RMA and plat denoting McCauley Lane right-of-way; 5. Exhibit 10 proposed plot plan The location of the existing septic system and McCauley Lane right-of-way, along with the topography of the lot, create a unique and peculiar problem with respect to the re- development of the property. Staff agrees.
