STAFF REPORT
Circor Energy Products, Inc. has applied for variances to the minimum
side yard building setbacks from 5' to 0.42' and 3.19'. The property
is located at 4960 Washington.
There are two existing buildings on the subject property. Jennifer
Turner, representing the applicant, states that Circor is in the process
of selling the property and the buyer is requiring the variances as a
condition to closing.
Ms. Turner states that the property to the west of the subject
property and the subject property were once owned by the same
person. The previous owner constructed the buildings and later
partitioned the property. The northern building was constructed
approximately 8 years ago and is 0.42' from the west property line
at its narrowest point. The south building was erected over 15 years
ago and is 3.19' from the east property line at its narrowest point.
The applicant shall have the burden to prove that all three conditions
necessary for approval have been met.
