Mr. Bill Moore, Chair
City of Saratoga Springs
Zoning Board of Appeals
Re: Addendum to previously Submitted 58 Fifth Ave Variance
Mr. Moore,
During the January 26, 2017 Zoning Board of Appeals meeting, our client was requested to
provide a developed design for the newly subdivided lot adjacent to 58 Fifth Ave. We have
subsequently been hired as the Architect and are providing additional details and drawings
to supplement the previously submitted Zoning Application. Please see below for updated
narratives and sought variances:
Zoning UR-1 Allowed Previously Proposed
Submitted
Front Yard Setback: 30' 21' 20'
Rear Yard Setback: 30' 25' 25'
Min. Yard Setback: 12' 8' 4' Measured to Areaways
(8' Measured to Roof overhang)
Max. % of Lot Coverage 20% 27.28% 28.62%
Principal Building:
1. Whether the benefit sought by the applicant can be achieved by other feasible means.
Identify what alternatives to the variance have been explored (alternative designs,
attempts to purchase land, etc.) and why they are not feasible.
The proposal is to construct a home that respects the context and scale of the existing
neighborhood. The Client and Builder have looked at several alternatives, and the chosen
design was deemed the best response to the client's needs while respecting the character
of the Fifth Avenue neighborhood. Additionally, there is no land available for purchase to
the east, west and south of the building lot to increase the size of the lot.
2. Whether granting the variance will produce an undesirable change in the character of
the neighborhood or a detriment to nearby properties. Granting the variance will not
create a detriment to nearby properties or an undesirable change in the neighborhood
character for the following reasons:
The proposed variances will not create an undesirable change in the character of the
neighborhood if the application is granted, as the proposed home's aesthetic is in keeping
bt a
with the character of the existing neighborhood. The variance would not affect existing
street views as front yard setbacks will be consistent with the existing neighboring homes
along Fifth Avenue.
3. Whether the variance is substantial. The requested variance is not substantial for the
following reasons:
The variances are not substantial in relation to the existing lots and improvements located
along Fifth Avenue. We would offer that lots in this neighborhood are preexisting
nonconforming with regard to the UR-1 requirements. The proposed residence will
minimize impact on the site and character of the surrounding area by keeping with the size
of single-family residences along 5th Avenue.
4. Whether the variance will have adverse physical or environmental effects on
neighborhood or district. The requested variance will not have an adverse physical or
environmental effect on the neighborhood or district for the following reasons:
The proposed variance will not have an adverse physical or environmental impact on the
neighborhood because the lot and proposed improvements are consistent with the existing
neighborhood and the existing infrastructure can support the addition of one single family
home within the neighborhood and city limits.
5. Whether the alleged difficulty was self-created (although this does not necessarily
preclude the granting of an area variance). Explain whether the alleged difficulty was or
was not self-created:
The variances sought are self-created as the proposal consists of the construction of a new
residence. However, the proposed design is consistent with the size and vernacular of
homes within the neighborhood on a non-conforming lot.
It is our belief that the additional information submitted with this letter demonstrates, that
the size of this residence is similar to approvals which have been granted and that the
applicants have made a good-faith effort to reduce the amount of their requested relief to
the greatest extent possible while maintaining the intended use of the building lot.
Thank you for your consideration in this matter and please do not hesitate to call if you
have any additional questions.
Sincerely,
117r}
