What This Bill Does
The Board of Adjustment has approved a request to reduce the required front and rear yard s for a new single-family home on Lot 2 of Morning Star Place. This change allows the property owner to build closer to the front and back property lines than the standard agricultural zoning rules typically permit.
The approval changes the building footprint requirements for a specific property in the A-1 Agriculture district, allowing the structure to be built 15 feet closer to the front property line and 10 feet closer to the rear property line than previously allowed.
