City Of Milton: Variance Requests For Hopewell, New Providence Roads On BZA's Agenda

Press release from the City of Milton:

09/20/2021 3:05 PM

Milton’s Board of Zoning Appeals will consider two requests for primary variances related to setbacks for residences when it meets Tuesday evening.

The meeting of this committee, also known as BZA, will begin at 6 p.m. on September 21 in City Hall’s Council Chambers. Anyone can attend in person. In addition, the meeting should be viewable live via this link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gpEQv8sKy1Q&list=PLpkXg669ndraS4Kii4znC0Qq4u-WvGzxZ&index=4. (If there are technical difficulties, the video should be available on the City’s YouTube page within 48 hours.)

After approving the agenda and August meeting minutes, BZA members will move onto discussing the variance requests. They are requests:

• To allow part of an existing residence at 15140 HOPEWELL ROAD to fall within the 50-foot stream buffer and 75-foot impervious setback currently required by the City. Earlier this month, Milton’s Design Review Board (DRB) considered this same request for this 6.38-acre property between – albeit on the opposite side of Hopewell – Bell Memorial Park and the Trophy Club.

   

• To reduce the front yard setback at 12745 NEW PROVIDENCE ROAD from the currently required 60 feet to 25 feet for a new house. The request for this 1.93-acre property in southwest Milton, just north of Arnold Mill Road and Fire Station 41, also recently went before the DRB.

After Tuesday’s meeting, Milton’s Board of Zoning Appeals is next scheduled to convene on October 19.
