The board deliberated on setback and sidewalk variances requested for a property located on Venture Park Drive. The applicant requested a setback variance for an office building addition and a variance to waive the requirement for a sidewalk installation. The board reviewed the criteria for granting variances, considering factors such as unique physical circumstances, unnecessary burdens, and the impact on public welfare. After thorough discussion, the board denied the setback variance, citing available alternatives and self-created hardship. However, the sidewalk variance was approved with a condition that the applicant consents to a future special assessment district for sidewalk construction. The meeting concluded with the board addressing another variance request related to an accessory building on North Ninth Street, which was granted due to unique lot conditions.
