CARMEL, INDIANA
Docket No.: 10020008 V
Petitioner: Adrienne Justin Keeling
FINDINGS OF FACT DEVELOPMENT STANDARDS VARIANCE
1. The approval of this variance will not be injurious to the public health, safety, morals and general welfare of the
community because:
Because of the age of the neighborhood, existing development patterns in the area already include
irregularities in setbacks and distances between homes.
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 development patterns in this area of Old Town include irregularities in side setbacks and distances
between homes. There are two home in the same block which are approximately 5 feet apart, and the next
street west includes homes within two to three feet of one another.
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 structure is already non conforming by sitting across a platted lot, and we are removing the
encroachment. The removal of a larger area of the structure to meet the setback would require the
relocation of the home's electrical and mechanical systems, including our panel box, water heater and
furnace.
