4. West: Multifamily High Density (R-3) 23

Board of Adjustments and Appeals · 2026-04-29 · agenda_item

A property owner at 1165 Mockingbird Lane is seeking a variance to build a large accessory structure. The property is about 0.75 acres and is zoned for Multifamily High Density Residential (R-3). The current home is about 860 square feet. The owner wants to build a new detached steel building that is 1,470 square feet. This would make the total area of detached buildings 1,518 square feet, which is 176 percent of the main house's square footage. The zoning rules limit detached buildings to 50 percent of the main house's square footage, or 430 square feet for this property. This variance request is currently under review by the Board of Adjustments and Appeals. If approved, the project would involve site preparation, foundation work, and the erection of the steel building. Contractors specializing in general construction, concrete work, and steel building erection could be involved. Reaching out to the property owner or their representatives early could provide an advantage before final plans and permits are secured.
