In order for your request to be granted, the concurring vote of four (4) members of the Board of
Adjustment voting in favor of the request shall be necessary.
In order for the Board members to vote in support of your application, you must prove several
things by your application.
Your application must clearly show that your property has UNIQUE CONDITIONS and
CIRCUMSTANCES which separate it from other typical properties with the same zoning; and
explain how these unique conditions and circumstances make it UNREASONABLE or UNFAIR
to apply the STANDARD ordinance requirements to YOUR property, unlike the way they are
applied to all other properties.
Describe the CONDITIONS and CIRCUMSTANCES which are UNIQUE to your property and
situation:
…………………………………………………………………………………

Explain why these unique conditions and circumstances make it UNREASONABLE or UNFAIR
to apply the STANDARD ordinance requirements to your property:
Roof will start at 20ft above slab on grade elevation to proved a 2 story height.
The flood line elevation of 572 is close to the main house and prevents building on
that line. This requirement from the Army Corps changes the original plan of a 2 story
attached building to the main house to now a detached accessory building located

car storage and lifts.

Additionally, in order for the Board members to vote in support of your application it must be
shown that the unique conditions and circumstances which you have described are NOT the
result of your own actions. (Actions taken by previous owners and actions taken by your agents
can be construed as "Your actions.")
Can you explain how the unique conditions and circumstances affecting your property came to
be, AND SHOW that they ARE NOT the result of YOUR OWN ACTIONS:
……………………………………………………………………………………….

………………………………………………………………………………………
………………………………………………………………………………………
………………………………………………………………………………………
………………………………………………………………………………………
………………………………………………………………………………………
………………………………………………………………………………………
Furthermore, the Board must be satisfied that the variance you are requesting is the MINIMUM
deviation from the terms of the ordinance NECESSARY to OVERCOME the unique conditions
and circumstances which you have described.
Explain how your proposal is the MINIMUM manner by which the unique conditions and
circumstances described can be overcome:
……………………………………………………………………………………….
The flood line elevation of 572 is close to the main house and prevents building on
that line. Original design of attaching to main house allowed the height of over 20ft to
top of roof. Based on the Army and Planning code requirements we have to relocate
and change to a accessory building which comes with different code requirements.
the main house we needed to change location and change from attached to a detached
building. Current accessory building code restricts height of building to 20ft affecting the
Original design was sent to US Army Corps of Engineers for approval of any building
on or below elevation 572. After discussion Army Corps denied the original design as
no building can be placed directly on the 572 elevation line. As the 572 line is close to
2 story space for car lift and storage garage.
This affects the original design and layout for the car lift and storage garage space.
By allowing the roof height to start at 20ft we are able to keep original building height
4
………………………………………………………………………………………
………………………………………………………………………………………
………………………………………………………………………………………
………………………………………………………………………………………
………………………………………………………………………………………
………………………………………………………………………………………
………………………………………………………………………………………
………………………………………………………………………………………
Also, the Board must be convinced that granting such a variance would not constitute an
UNFAIR GRANT OF SPECIAL PRIVILEGE to you, granting privileges that are otherwise denied
by the ordinance.
In other words, why would granting this variance be ONLY FAIR, and NOT MORE THAN FAIR,
to you, since others are prevented from doing what you are requesting:
……………………………………………………………………………………….
………………………………………………………………………………………
………………………………………………………………………………………
………………………………………………………………………………………
………………………………………………………………………………………
………………………………………………………………………………………
…..…………………………………………………………………………………
………………………………………………………………………………………
Finally, the Board must be certain your request is in harmony with the public welfare, and will
not in any way be injurious or detrimental to your neighbors and their property rights.
