Statement of Special Conditions
, ! 4
Griffiths Residence
1301 NW 8th Court
Boynton Beach, Fl33426
-'
A. That special conditions and circwnstances exist which are peculiar to the land, structures,
or buildings in the same zoning district.
Response: A special condition exists in that there is no lot adjacent to the property to the rear. The
lot backs np to a street right of way (name of street). A special condition also exists in that the
location of the existing family room is at the rear of the house and is the logical starting point for
a simple addition that will meet the owner's requirements.
B. That the special conditions and circwnstances do not result from the actions of the
applicant.
Response: The lot and house where purchased by the applicant in the existing condition and
neither configuration was created due to the action of the applicant.
C. The granting of the variance will not confer on the applicant any special privilege that is
denied by this ordinance to other lands.
Response: Typical houses constructed within the R lAA zoning district would normally be much
larger than the subject property which is a 2 bedroom 1 bath 1 car garage with approximately
1233 square feet ofliving area. With the proposed addition of871 square feet and consisting of
an expanded family room, a home office, and a master bedroom and bath the square footage is
increased to 2104 square feet. This proposed area is consistent with what could be expected of
any new home within the same zoning district.
D. That literal interpretation of the provisions of this chapter wonld deprive the applicant of
rights commonly enjoyed by other properties in the same zoning district under the tenns
of the Ordinance and would work unnecessary and undue hardship on the applicant.
Response: Due to the existing location of the house in the middle of the lot and the existing plan
layout the provisions of the chapter would restrict the reasonable expansion of the residence to
meet current residential area standards and room sizes.
E. That the variance granted is the minimwn variance that will make possible the reasonable
use of the land, building or structure.
Response: The variance requested represents the minimwn required to serve the applicants needs
for the addition.
F. That the granting of the variance will be in harmony with the general intent and purpose
of this chapter and that such variance will not be injurious to the area involved or other
wise detrimental to the public welfare.
Response: The variance if granted will improve property values and taxable values as well as
continue a trend of improvement in the Laurel Hills Subdivision and on this street in particular.
Adequate landscaping will be installed to screen the rear of the addition and the proposed pool as
well.
