RE: REQUEST FOR VARIANCE-FRONT BUILDING SETBACK
NATURE OF VARIANCE-EXPLAINED
JUSTIFICATION OF VARIANCE-EXPLAINED
Dear Sir or Madam:
; ` Pursuant to the application for variance,please find the following as requested:
NATURE OF VARIANCE
We hereby request a variance to a11ow the cost effective building of additional square
footage to our house, which as proposed will encroach 3' into the front setback. Having
been residents of Tequesta at this address for almost four years, we have put a
tremendous amount of time, energy, and commitment into beatifying our property and
making our house our"home". With recent news of our expecting twins this fall (without
the use of supplemental fertility drugs)we are faced with the hardship of having to
expand our home in order to accommodate our quickly growing family. By converting
our existing garage into an additional bedroom and expanding a new two-car garage
outward, we can achieve both an aesthetic and functional exterior, while minimizing the
cost of expanding our 2-bedroom home into a 3-bedroom home. The end result of
building 21' out from our existing structure will allow the minimum needed depth for a
garage while maintaining a safe distance of 42' from the edge of pa�ement on Golfview
Drive.
