IN THE MATTER OF THE APPEAL OF
Joseph and Robyn Scotland
111 White Street
Saratoga Springs NY 12866
from the determination of the Building Inspector involving the premises at 111 White Street in the City
of Saratoga Springs, New York being tax parcel number 166.69-4-22, in the UR-3 district on the
Assessment Map of said City.
This being an application for an area variance under the Zoning Ordinance of said City to permit the
construction of a single-family residence and public notice having been duly given of a hearing on said
application held on June 27 and July 25 2022.
In consideration of the balance between benefit to the applicant with detriment to the health, safety, and
welfare of the community, I move that the following area variances for the following amounts of relief:
TYPE OF REQUIREMENT DISTRICT DIMENSIONAL PROPOSED RELIEF REQUESTED
REQUIREMENT
MINIMUM AVERAGE LOT WIDTH 60' 50' 10' OR 16.7%RELIEF
As per the submitted plans or lesser dimensions, be approved for the following reasons:
1. The applicant has demonstrated this benefit cannot be achieved by other means feasible to the
applicant. Per the applicant, the lot is pre-existing, non-conforming with no other property
available to purchase. The applicant stated that the majority of the lots on both sides of White
Street are 50' width. A single family home will be built with a detached garage on North Alley.
No further variances will be required.
2. The applicant has demonstrated that granting these variances will not create an undesirable
change in neighborhood character or detriment to nearby properties. The lots on White Street
are primarily 50' wide and have been in existence since the 1800's.
3. The Board notes the requested variance is not substantial.
4. This variance will not have a significant adverse physical or environmental effect on the
neighborhood or district. The property will meet permeability in the district.
5. The alleged difficulty is self-created insofar as the applicant's desire to construct the proposed
single-family residence,but this is not necessarily fatal to the application.
It so moved, dated July 25, 2022
Adopted by the following vote:
Page 1 of 2
AYES: 6 (B. Dailey, G. Simpson, C. Grey, E. Bergmann, J Farrington, A. Smith,)
NAYES: 0
Dated: July 25, 2022
This variance shall expire 18 months following the filing date of such decision unless the necessary
building permit has been issued and actual construction begun as per 240-8.5.1.
I hereby certify the above to be a full, true and correct copy of a resolution duly adopted by the Zoning
Board of Appeals of the City of Saratoga Springs on the date above mentioned, six members of the Board
being present.
