The corner lot has two front-yard setbacks of 25ft. The request 38 is to encroach approximately 15ft into the setback on the 6th Street side (remain 10ft from the property 39 line). 40 41 Nelson Vincent, petitioner, presented the request. He stated that there appears to be an underground spring 42 on the southern side of the lot that causes the ground to be perpetually wet and soft. This creates an issue 43 for building anything on that side so would like to place the detached garage on the north side to avoid 44 the wet area. 45 46
Chairman Knapp opened the floor for public comments. There were none. The public hearing was closed. 47 48 Chairman Knapp opened the discussion for the Board. Mr. Parker moved to establish the findings of fact 49
stating that 1) special conditions did exist which are peculiar to the land; 2) a literal interpretation of the 50 zoning ordinance would deprive the applicant of rights commonly enjoyed by other properties; 3) the 51 conditions and circumstances do no result from actions of the applicant; and 4) granting of the variance 52
is in harmony with the intent and purposes of the zoning ordinance. Mr. Whaley seconded the motion. 53 The motion to approve the findings of fact passed unanimously. 54

conditions apply to the land, structure, and use for which the Special Exception is granted and not to a
particular person. Violations of conditions lawfully attached to any Special Exception constitute
