VARIANCE(S): Accessory Building Maximum Square Footage Variance
Chairman White opened the public hearing at approximately 6:30 p.m.
Petitioner David Owen requested to construct a 30’ X 40’ shop in his back yard. He answered Chairman White that it would be a metal building, adding that the colors would match the
residence. He then related that the only part of the building that would be visible from the street would be the roof and two feet of the walls, noting that he has an 8’ fence and the
walls will be 10’ in height.
City Engineer Whisker noted that Oak Ridge Ranch Subdivision has larger lots so it is easier to fit a 1,200 square foot building in the rear yard. He confirmed with Mr. Owen that his
lot is slightly over 1 acre.
Mr. Owen then noted that there have been several homes that were constructed with larger accessory buildings. He noted that his neighbor directly across the street from his home has
a shop that is 32’ X 30’.
City Engineer Whisker acknowledged that several residents in the Oak Ridge Subdivision have obtained variances from the Board of Adjustment for large accessory buildings.
Commissioner Healey moved, seconded by Commissioner Brannen to approve the maximum square footage variance at 5313 Ridge Road as requested. MOTION CARRIED.
Chairman White closed the public hearing at approximately 6:36 p.m.

Without objection, Chairman White adjourned the meeting at approximately 6:35 p.m. MOTION CARRIED.
