Zoning Board of Appeals Meeting 12/05/05 Page 2
Mr. Amodic attended the November 14, 2005 Review Panel Meeting. Mr. Amodic represents Lonestar Construction who has recently constructed another home in Buckland Estates. The home has been constructed and it is not where the building permit application shows it should be. The home is approximately 6" off.
A Residential 20,000 District requires a 50’ front yard setback, therefore an Area Variance will be required since it was found that the home is 49 ½’ from the front yard property line.
Unfortunately, Mr. Amodic was not present for the Meeting.
Zoning Board of Appeals Members requested that Codes Enforcement Officer George W. Russell be contacted to issue a Stop Work Order.
