Area Variance

 

Steve & LouiseWinney and John Hall #17-01

1045 Co. Rt. 70

Stillwater, NY 12170

S/B/L 193.-1-42 Rural

 

Applicant was before the Planning Board last month for a minor subdivision of a 2 acre lot from the 105.57+/- acre farm field, in order for the Applicant's daughter to build a single family home.  The Planning Board said they had proper frontage for the 2 acre lot, but had to deny it due to the remaining frontage for the balance of the land.  The Planning Board sends the Applicant before the ZBA with a positive recommendation for the frontage variance.  Applicant seeks a 200' lot width variance and a 200' frontage variance.

 

Rex James #17-02

772 Rt. 29

Saratoga Springs, NY 12866

S/B/L 168.-3-9.1 Rural Residential

 

Applicant seeks to build a 500 sq. ft. extension onto the existing, non-conforming garage apartment.  The garage apartment was constructed without a permit and the Applicant would like to make this compliant with the Town's current zoning regulations.  He seeks a 2+ acre area variance, a 20' side set back variance, a 202' lot width variance and a 144' frontage variance to do so.  The existing structure is too close to the side boundary and the total lot area does not meet zoning regulations for an additional residence on that parcel.

 

Gilman Albert #17-03

967 Rt. 29

Saratoga Springs, NY 12866

S/B/L 156.-1-3.1

 

Applicant was before the Planning Board in December 2016 asking if the retail space he is building doesn't work out as he hopes, could he obtain a special use permit to turn that building into a second residence.  The Planning Board reviewed his information, along with his plans, and said yes it is allowable; he could turn it into a second house or put an apartment over the retail space, but they had to deny the request since he needs a 166' lot width variance and a 166' frontage variance.  The Planning Board sends him before the ZBA with a positive recommendation for the requested variances.
