Statement of Special Conditions
Variance Request by Habitat for Humani~ for NE 3rd Ct.
03/31/03
We are requesting variance of the rear setback from 25' to 10' and lot area to 4379 sq. ft. for this
irregular lot in order to accommodate the construction of affordable housing in Boynton Beach.
A. This lot was given to us by the city but is un-buildable even under the Non-Conforming lot
rules.
B. The lot would be unbuildable without a variance due to surrounding property restrictions not
caused by the applicant.
C. This problem is common in this neighborhood. Granting the variance would allow us the
privilege of building a SFR enjoyed by current residences.
D. See B above. Affordable housing builders need to have this type of variance to obtain infill
lots and keep the prices affordable.
E. This variance will allow Habitat for Humanity to build much needed affordable housing.
F. It is a recognized fact that Habitat homes and home owners upgrade the neighborhoods in
which we build, reduce crime, and add to the tax base of the community
For these reasons we feel it is in the community' s best interest to grant the variance to facilitate
affordable housing.
