This item concerns a request for a variance to reduce a side setback requirement for an existing garage under construction. The property is located at 12474 E Highway 25 in Ocklawaha, Florida, within a Multiple-Family Dwelling (R-3) zone. The variance seeks to lower the west side setback from 8 feet to 4.6 feet. This case is currently pending before the Board of Adjustment. If approved, the project would involve the completion of the garage construction. This could create opportunities for contractors involved in concrete, framing, roofing, electrical, plumbing, and HVAC work, as well as suppliers of building materials. Early engagement with the property owners could be beneficial before final permits and construction plans are settled.
