The subject property and all surrounding properties are zoned and
developed as Planned Development District Housing.
The applicant states as a special condition that: "The builder at
4416 Pickering mistakenly used the wrong survey pin for his property
corner on the front left corner and it was the only visible pin shown at
the time ".
As a hardship the applicant has stated that: "All indications that
the survey pin for the right front property pin was correct, #1 because
of the lot 27 fence being perfectly in line from back left property pin
and the visible front left, and #2 the slab was 5 -foot from the same
line, #3 the sprinkler heads all set on that same line, #4 grass sod
following the same line, therefore it was a good indication that the pin
in question was the correct right front property pin ".
The applicant has offered no alternatives.

Ordinance Intent
I would like to remind the board that building setback
requirements usually allow for some degree of control over
population density, access to light and air, and fire protection.
These standards are typically justified on the basis of the
protection of property values.
Just so the board knows one of our inspectors measured the
distance from house eave to house eave and slab to slab. The
eaves were 7 foot 9 inches apart and the slabs were 10 feet
apart.
The has been three letters turned in from Mr. Thomas that you
should all have a copy of and one phone call from Mr. Joe
Corley who called to reiterate his support for this variance
request.
