Section 5. Zoning Code Variance Application:
Thomas & Rona Hendricks
911 SW 28th Ave
A. The property in question is a 2 bedroom/2 bath home located on a 85 x 110 lot.
The home was purchased with the intent of adding a 3rd bedroom to accommodate
the family (Thomas, Rona Thomas Jr. & Rebecca). The current layout of the
home dictates that the addition should be added to the North/West side of the
property. Any other positioning of the addition will also require a variance and
complicate the construction and add unnecessary cost. In addition, other
positioning of the improvements will tend to minimize the potential increase in
property value.
B. The above special conditions/circumstances are not a result of any action of the
applicants.
C. Granting of this variance will not confer any special privilege to the applicants.
As stated in section D. below, the city has granted a similar variance to other
residents in the same zoning district. In addition, upon review of other properties
in the area it is evident that the setback has been encroached upon at one time or
another.
D. By not granting this variance the city of Boynton Beach will deprive the
applicants of rights enjoyed by other properties in the same zoning district.
Specifically, a variance was granted to the owners of the property located at 710
SW 27th Ave. (Lot 11, Bock 9, Forest Hills Subdivision) on 6/3/2003 which
provided the owners relief from Chapter 2, Zoning Section 5.C.2.a which requires
a minimum rear setback of 25fi. for a single-family residential (R-1-AA) zoning
district. In addition, the city acknowledges that the setbacks are unreasonable and
are currently reviewing the rear setbacks with the intention of reducing them to be
more reasonable and in line with other municipalities in the area.
E. The subject improvement represents a minor expansion of the home relative to the
minimum living area standard applicable to the subject zoning district. The
proposed improvements will add approx 450 sq. fi of living space to the existing
1300 sq. fi. home. Most other homes in the area are 3-4 bedroom homes with total
square footage in excess of 2500 sq fi. on similar size lots.
F. The granting of this variance and the resulting improvements will be in harmony
with the surrounding properties and will not be injurious to the area involved or
detrimental to the public welfare. In addition, the proposed improvements will
add value to said property and in general contribute to the overall raising of
property values in the subject zoning district.
