Item: Presentation, possible action, and discussion regarding a request to rehear variance
case #09-00500205 for 504 Guernsey, consisting of a reduction of 8 feet to the 20-foot rear
setback and a reduction of 12 feet to the 20-foot side street setback required for garages.
Applicant: Russ and Linda Harvell, property owners
Item Summary: The ZBA originally heard and denied this variance case on November 10,
2009. A motion to approve the variance failed (3-2). The rules and procedures adopted by the
ZBA provide applicants the opportunity to request a rehearing, which can be granted if the
Board determines that information provided by the applicant is new and relevant to their
decision point of a hardship as a result of a property's special condition. If the ZBA approves a
request to rehear, the applicant must pay a new fee by an established deadline and then their
item be scheduled for a future meeting. The applicant's letter requesting a rehearing is included
with this memorandum. Staff has received a letter supporting the applicant's request for a
rehearing from one neighboring property owner.
