FINDINGS OF FACT-DEVELOPMENT STANDARDS VARIANCE
Docket No.: 14030016 V
Petitioner: DB Klain Construction,LLC
1. The approval of this variance will not be injurious to the public health, safety, morals and general welfare of the
community because:
This lot is one of the shallowest lots in the area,therefore doesn't allow for the additional non-pervious area.
The frontage of the lot is consistent with the remaining homes in the area,and with the addition of the rain
garden we will be able to make up for the non-pervious area needed and still provide an aesthetically
pleasing landscape to help enhance the highly visible corner of the lot.
2. The use and value of the area adjacent to the property included in the variance will not be affected in a
substantially adverse manner because:
The home that we are proposing is designed to highlight the highly visible corner by taking advantage of a wrap
around porch and a mixture of materials and colors. The new custom home will be a considerably higher value
than the existing home. The rain garden will address the transfer of excess water runoff while still providing an
beautiful landscape to be viewed by all in the area.
3 The strict application of the terms of the Zoning Ordinance to the property will result in practical difficulties in the
use of the property because:
The current custom home that we have designed is not an excessively large home,and to be able to design a
home that would fit within the existing 45%coverage range would result in a much smaller home that would not
be able to support the investment being made for a home of this caliber. Without this approval the existing lot
does not lend itself to a new home investment_
