Request for a variance to exceed the maximum accessory structure height to
build a screened enclosure.
Chair Hansen asked if there was anyone in the audience who would like to speak at this
meeting. Ms. Durden held the swearing in of staff and several people in the audience.
STAFF REPORT: Planner Genest presented the information as explained in the staff
report. She also provided a PowerPoint presentation.
Ms. Lanier asked a hypothetical question. She wanted to know if the pool wasn't there
and the homeowner wanted to build a detached garage what would the height and
setbacks be for the detached garage. Planner Genest said that the detached garage would
be the 5 feet side and rear setbacks, 10 feet setback from the house and maximum 15 feet
high. Ms. Lanier asked if staff knew when the pool was built but Planner Genest was
not sure.
APPLICANT COMMENT: Cliff Carter, owner of Call the Screen Guys, 1540 South
Mealy Street. Represent Sean and Candy Keane who are the property owners).
Ms. Lanier asked when the remodel took place. Mr. Carter said 5-6 months ago. Mr.
Schooling asked when the pool was installed. Mr. Carter guessed that it would have
been sometime in the 70's or 80's. Ms. Lanier said the pool was there in 1983 when she
moved into the neighborhood. Chair Hansen asked if the screen enclosure was already
built since there wasn't a picture of it. Mr. Carter said it was and explained how it got
installed before the permit was issued. He never thought the permit would be denied
because he was not aware of the height restrictions. There was further discussion of how
the enclosure looks. Mr. Carter had some picture on his phone that he showed several
of the Board members. Ms.Durden told Chair Hansen that it is okay to show the pictures
but they need to be sent to Director Askew for public record. Mr. Schooling asked if the
screen enclosure was part of the security for the pool. Mr. Carter explained that it does
add to the security and said there is also a fence.
PUBLIC COMMENT: Chair Hansen opened the floor to public comment. Alan
Gasparovic, 333 Saturiba Drive, introduced himself as the next door neighbor and spoke
in favor of the variance. Ronald Lagues, 1810 Live Oak Lane, said that he that he
approved of the screen enclosure and had no issues with it. Ronald Pendleton, 1825 Live
Oak Lane, said that he walks by the property several times a day and he is in favor of the
variance. Chair Hansen closed the floor to public comment.
BOARD DISCUSSION: Ms. Lanier said that she can see why the screen enclosure had
to be as high as it was and she would approve this variance. Mr.Moyer was disappointed
in the lack of a permit but said he was okay with approving the request. Mr. Schooling
said he was in favor of approving the variance request. Chair Hansen took issue with it
not meeting any of the criteria required for approval.
