BoardStratham Zoning Board of Adjustment Meeting Minutes
The board reviewed two separate variance applications. In the first case, the applicant requested a variance from frontage requirements to subdivide a parcel into two lots. The discussion focused on variance criteria, potential impacts on neighborhood character, privacy concerns for neighbors, and the nature of the alleged hardship, resulting in a motion to deny the request. In the second case, the board considered a request for a variance from front setback requirements to permit the construction of an eight-foot privacy fence on a corner lot, evaluating the justification for increased safety and the site-specific placement of the fence.
