BoardCity of Norton Board of Zoning and Building Appeals Public Hearing
The board discussed a variance application for a property on Mamie Road concerning the size and placement of a proposed accessory building. The applicant sought relief from zoning codes to construct a larger building in a location forward of the rear plane of the house, citing safety and accessibility needs for vehicle and livestock equipment storage. The board deliberated on the drainage implications, the total square footage including architectural features like overhangs, and the topographical constraints of the lot that make rear-lot placement difficult. A neighboring property owner corroborated the potential for increased water runoff issues if the structure were moved further back on the lot.
