When requesting an extension of time for an existing variance,the applicant must prove that the circumstances upon which the original variance was granted have not changed. Specifically demonstrate that there have been no significant changes on the site, In the neighborhood,or within the circumstances upon which the original variance was granted: Revised 01/2019 ZONING BOARD OF APPEALS APPIJCA77ON FORM PAGE 6 AREA VARIANCE—PLEASE ANSWER THE FOLLOWING(add additional information as necessary): The applicant requests relief from the following Zoning Ordinance article(s) Dimensional Requirements From To EXISTING CONDITION-Front setback of principal structure 30' 14.2' Maximum Building Coverage,Accessory Structures 8% 8.33% Other: To grant an area variance,the ZBA must balance the benefits to the applicant and the health,safety,and welfare of the neighborhood and community,taking into consideration the following: I. 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 principal structure setback is a pre-existing condition with no alterations proposed. The excess lot coverage by the accessory structures is due to a combination of existing pool area and the desire for the new pool house to replace an existing shed,increasing its use from storage-only to storage and function. The area is over its allowable area by 55 sf(0.33%), created by the roof overhangs. It is not feasible to request to purchase additional land from the neighbor to meet the zoning requirement due to the small area that is being requested.the cost would be prohibitive. 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: No undesirable change of character will occur since the pool house is being constructed in the style of the principal structure to maintain consistency of character within the neighborhood. Revised 0112019 ZONING BOARD OFAPPEALS APPLICATION fORP1 PAGE 7 3. Whether the variance is substantial. The requested variance is not substantial for the following reasons: The variance requested for the pool house is not substantial since it amounts to 55sf or 0.33%variance over the allowable lot coverage for accessory structures. 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: No adverse impact will be created by the construction of the pool house since it is in character with the neighborhood and the area variance requested is the minimum amount possible. In an effort to reduce the impact,the eaves and rakes of the pool house have been shortened to 9"from the standard 12"and the rear rake has been reduced to a 1-112"fascia only. The pool house will not produce noise or pollution since it is to continue the property use as a single-family residence. 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 difficulty is self-created by the request to combine storage and function into one accessory structure. i e sised U i/201') • ZONING BOARD OF APPEALS APPLICATION FORM PAGE 8 DISCLOSURE Does any City officer,employee,or family member thereof have a financial interest(as defined by General Municipal Law Section 809)in this application? ❑No ❑Yes If"yes",a statement disclosing the name,residence and nature and extent of this interest must be filed with this application.
