Property Owner Seeks Variance From Zoning Board Meeting Set
Harold R. Bundy seeks a variance to reduce the 30 foot rear setback to about 14 feet for a 16 foot house expansion. The Board of Zoning Appeals will hear the petition Thursday at 7 p.m. after informal review with City Manager Dave Watkins. The case tests criteria of no reasonable alternative, potential confiscation, and not merely for convenience. The board may render a decision or take under advisement. The filing fee is $35, and this is the board’s first meeting this year with new leadership and members. The board will elect a new chairman.
