6/2/2026 Board of Zoning Appeals
Tuesday, Jun 2, 2026
Variance Granted for 6-Foot Front Yard Fence on Water Street
The Board of Zoning Appeals considered a variance request for Dustin Myers at 233 Water Street to allow a 6-foot front yard fence, which exceeds the 3-foot height limit for front yards as per city code 150.323 [cite: 26-34]. The applicant presented neighbor approvals and mentioned a previous fence [cite: 41-44]. The board discussed findings of fact, including whether the variance would impair light, air, street congestion, fire safety, property values, or public health and welfare [cite: 74-97]. Ultimately, the board granted the variance [cite: 101].
Revocation Hearing for Huber/Crossroads Investment Group Continued
A revocation hearing for Seth Huber and Crossroads Investment Group regarding a special exception for a lay down yard in an I2 zone district at 500 North 9th Street was continued [cite: 151-156, 207]. The applicant's legal representation requested a continuance due to needing more time to review the case [cite: 159-160, 191-192]. The board agreed to continue the hearing to June 16th at 4:30 p.m., provided public notice could be published [cite: 207, 223-224, 226-230]. If public notice cannot be completed, the hearing will be rescheduled for July 7th [cite: 224-225]. The board also discussed the process for revocation hearings, outlining that the zoning administrator would present evidence of violation first, followed by the applicant's defense, and then public comment [cite: 254-287].
