Case 02: Request for a Variance to Construct an Accessory Structure that Will Be Nearer the Front Property Line than the Principal Structure; Case of Ben Deemer Chairperson Deemer is now present as a citizen, therefore Vice Chairperson LaDue became acting Chairperson. Zoning Administrator Frolik stated that Ben Deemer is proposing to construct a 1,500 square foot accessory sl~ucture that will be nearer the front property line than his home at 14501 Sunfish Lake Boulevard N.W. (C.S.A.H. #57). She explained that the hardship for the variance is that the original builder of the home created a 300 foot front yard setback by the placement of the home. She added that in addition to substantial amounts of mature tree growth and sharply declining property in the vicinity of the home, construction of the accessory structure in more appropriate locations is also prohibited by the location of the well, septic and drainfield system, and an alternate drainfield area. Board Member Terry inquired why the previous driveway was vacated, and Mr. Deemer replied that the driveway went onto a private easement that was not on his property. Board Member Terry inquired if it was the intention of the home builder to bring the driveway out the front of the house, and Mr. Deemer stated he believed that was the intention. The Board of Adjustment proceeded to review the Findings of Fact. Board of Adjustment/March 17, 1994 Page 3 of 12
