Meeting Date: Wednesday, June 20, 2012
Approved X
MOTION TO APPROVE AREA VARIANCE NO. 26-2012 SAN SOUCI OF CLEVERDALE, Introduced by
Richard Garrand who moved for its adoption, seconded by Brian Clements:
92 Mason Road. The applicant proposes to modify approved site plan to include the removal
of vegetation and the installation of permeable pavers on existing gravel parking spaces.
Further the applicant seeks after the fact approval for the installation of a plus or minus 665
square foot patio with access deck and stairs to accommodate four tables as well as
installation of a six foot tall, 112 foot long stockade fence along the south boundary. Relief
required: side setback relief of 7.15 feet after the fact installation of stairs and deck leading to
unapproved patio. Number Two, expansion of a nonconforming structure. Number Three, front
east fence height and style. The request is after the fact for two feet of fence height and style
along 28 feet of architectural front placement of six foot tall vinyl stockade fence. On the
balancing test, whether an undesirable change in the neighborhood will be produced. At this
point the applicant has given us a timetable. We have a plan of action for getting the project
wrapped up. I don't foresee any detriment to nearby properties. Whether benefit sought by
the applicant can be achieved by other feasible means. Offhand I don't know. I don't know
how other benefits can be achieved. Whether the request is substantial. I would deem this as

system and he will also monitor said septic system for failure in the meantime. If it does fail, I
believe he agreed to replace it. With respect to the plantings and the permeable pavers, I
think it'll have a positive effect on the neighborhood, given what was previously there. Is the
alleged difficulty self-created? I think most of these difficulties were created before the
applicant bought the property. So I move we approve Area Variance 26-2012, with the
approved timetable outlined by the applicant.
Duly adopted this 20th day of June, 2012, by the following vote:
AYES: Mr. Urrico, Mrs. Hunt, Mr. Underwood, Mr. Kuhl, Mr. Clements, Mr. Garrand, Mr. Jackoski
NOES: NONE
