ORDER DENYING VARIANCE
Pursuant to Section 24-49 and Section 24-64 of the City of Atlantic Beach Zoning and Subdivision
Regulations, the above referenced applicant requested a variance from Section 24-107 (e) (2), such
application seeking to allow a reduction in a required rear yard to allow for the future construction of
a residential structure on a non -conforming 70' wide x 50' deep lot of record located on the west
side of the right-of-way at 1725 Beach Avenue.
On March 15, 2011, said request was considered at public hearing by the Community Development
Board for the City of Atlantic Beach. Having considered the application and supporting documents
and statements made by the Applicant, the Community Development Board found that the request
did not comply with Section 24-49 and Section 24-64 the City of Atlantic Beach Zoning and
Subdivision Regulations, finding as follows:
The property is not of irregular shape warranting special conditions, neither are there
exceptional topographic conditions of or near the property, nor are there surrounding
conditions or circumstances impacting the property disparately from nearby
properties;
2. The substandard size of the lot of record neither warrants a variance in order to
provide for the reasonable use of the property, nor are there other exceptional

circumstances preventing the reasonable use of the property compared to other
properties in the area;
The granting of the variance will have a materially adverse impact on the light and air
to adjacent properties, public safety, including risk of fire, traffic safety and general
congestion of streets, the natural environment of the community, and established
property values;
4. The granting of the variance will not be in harmony with the general intent and
purpose of Chapter 24, City of Atlantic Beach Zoning and Subdivision Regulations.
NOW THEREFORE, based on the said findings, the Community Development Board hereby
DENIES the request to allow a reduction in a required rear yard to allow for the future construction
of a residential structure on a non -conforming 70' wide x 50' deep lot of record located on the west
side of the right-of-way at 1725 Beach Avenue.
