JUSTIFICATION SHALL BE BASED ON THESE THREE (3) CRITERIA: 1) That the strict application of this ordinance would produce undue hardship. 2) That such hardship is not shared generally by other properties in the same zoning district and the same vicinity. 77 PC i1F b 3) That the authorization of such variance will not be of substantial detriment to adjacent property and that the character of the district will not be changed by the granting of the variance. The application may be deferred by the staff or the Board of Zoning Appeals, if sufficient information necessary to this review has not be submitted by the deadline. I hereby certify that the information provided on this application and accompanying information is accurate, ,true and correct to the best of my knowledge and blief. Sig ,� .� / - 1/ r,,� /-//-96 ature Date Re ce ipt# Date Variance Application Question #1 Undue Hardship: Pursuant to section 6 . 4 . 2 of the Zoning Handbook which states, "Any buildings or structure located or constructed prior to the adoption of this ordinance may be expanded, enlarged or extended in accordance with the rear, side and front yard and setback regulations of the prior zoning ordinance . " (Added 9-21-88 ;Amended 9-9-92) . In November of 1987, I, Wylie Cooke, purchased said property in good faith to become my permanent residence . At that time, the ordinances allowed me to add on to the house . Since then the rules have changed and I am no longer allowed to add on without a variance . I have recently married and we are expecting our first child, hence we need more space and would like to make improvements . In approving this application for variance the county would avoid creating unnecessary hardships for my family or myself . Some hardships would include and are not limited to; - The emotional and psychological trauma of relocating my family. - The financial burden of having to sell my home "as is" without the right to improve or add on to it . - The financial impracticality of tearing down the existing home and building farther back on the property. Question #2 Uniqueness : Mine is not the only property that would require a variance in the neighborhood. There are two other homes as close, if not closer to the road than my own. However, my situation is unique because of the anticipated new addition to my family and the need for substantial improvements as well as more space in the existing building. Again, when I originally purchased this property it was permissible to improve and add on to the structure . Question #3 Detriment : There will be no detriment to any adjacent properties in the neighborhood. There would, in fact, be an increase in property values . VDOT has already purchased a right of way to improve and pave Broad Axe Road. The proposed addition would be built farther away from the new set back than the existing structure . Any addition and/or improvement to the existing structure would bring the building up to current county codes and improve the aesthetic quality of the exterior. THIS CERTIFIES THAT ON ///3/8.
