Upcoming Variance Request – Quarter Section Q18-40
Hearing Date: Tuesday, June 17 at 9:00 AM
Proposal: Variance to allow 33% lot coverage (current zoning allows a maximum of 25%).
Ordinance Reference: Section 609.B.Table
Applicant & Representative: Yanela Nunez Ventura, Architecture-Infrastructure-Research, Inc.
Owner: Clayton Bain
Status & Notes:

• The applicant is requesting to exceed the allowed lot coverage to build a larger home.

• A site plan has been submitted, but the applicant’s narrative explaining the rationale is still pending.

• The existing home is a single-story structure and currently 784 sq ft below the 25% lot coverage limit.

• Based on the current lot size, the property owner could:

  • Add 1,963 sq ft while staying under a 30% lot coverage (without a variance), or

  • Add a second story within the existing footprint (plus 784 sq ft on the first floor).

  • But not both, which appears to be what the current variance seeks.
