Oversized accessory building variance at 33710 Mulvey Road
Fraser
Summary
A homeowner wants to build a 3,120-square-foot, 20-foot-tall pole barn, far exceeding the normal size and height caps for accessory buildings in the residential low-density district. The board found the 1.4-acre, 635-foot-deep lot is unique and approved the variance with conditions, but a neighbor who was denied a similar variance two decades ago questioned the inconsistent treatment.
