The approval of this variance will not be injurious to the public health, safety, morals and general welfare of the community because the improvements are all on private property and nothing hazardous is being constructed/installed. 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 it is an improvement to the existing property. Therefore, it will raise the value of adjacent properties. 3. The strict application of the terms of the Unified Development to the property will result in practical difficulties in the use of the property because the bar/kitchen area and fireplace cannot be constructed on a permeable surface. Also, the remaining outdoor living space will be semi- permeable pavers so that outdoor furniture can be placed throughout the area.

FINDINGS OF FACT SHEET- DEVELOPMENT STANDARDS VARIANCE CARMEL ADVISORY BOARD OF ZONING APPEALS Docket No.: PZ-2022-00198 V Petitioner: Keith and Mary Hinkebein 1. The approval of this variance will not be injurious to the public health, safety, morals and general welfare of the community because the improvements are all on private property and nothing hazardous is being constructed/installed. 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 it is an improvement to the existing property. Therefore, it will raise the value of adjacent properties. 3. The strict application of the terms of the Unified Development to the property will result in practical difficulties in the use of the property because if the variance setback is not approved, then the backyard space is not big enough to complete the project. The kitchen/bar area needs to be pushed out closer to the sidewalk to allow enough space to get around the bar area. By not pushing this out closer to our property line, we would be very crowded in the area coming down the stairs from the porch and entering the grilling area.

The strict application of the terms of the Unified Development to the property will result in practical difficulties in the use of the property because if the fence variance setback is not approved, then the backyard space is not big enough to complete the project and will significantly cut down on usable space. Also, if the fence is not at least the height specified on the plans, then our privacy would be compromised.
