Summary:
The Applicant Landowner requests a variance from Section 155.3203(C) of the Pompano Beach Zoning Code, which establishes the intensity and dimensional standards for the RS-2 Zoning District. The requested variance would permit a new single-family residence on a waterfront lot to be located 5 feet from the rear property line, in lieu of the required 25-foot setback from an abutting waterway or canal. No habitable enclosed space is proposed within the required setback. The request is driven by the proposed site design, which structurally integrates the swimming pool and turf sundeck with the principal structure, thereby necessitating relief from the waterfront setback requirement.
The subject property is located on the east side of Bay Drive, between Barton Road and Dow Street, in the Hillsboro Shores section of the barrier island.
