4. Strict interpretation and enforcement of the code would deprive the applicant of rights

Board of Adjustment · 2026-04-21 · agenda_item

This item concerns a property owner's request for relief from certain code requirements, specifically regarding setbacks and landscaping location. The applicant believes that a strict application of the code would create an undue hardship and unfairly burden the property, preventing them from enjoying rights common to other nearby parcels. The Board of Adjustment is reviewing this request to determine if relief should be granted. If relief is approved, the project could involve site preparation, grading, installation of landscaping, and potentially construction or renovation work that must comply with the modified setback and landscaping rules. Contractors specializing in site work, landscaping, and general construction may find opportunities if this request is approved. Early engagement with the applicant or city staff could provide insight into the project's scope and timeline before formal plans are finalized.
