A Variance to facilitate a reduction of a side setback from 5 feet to 3 feet. The existing residence was built in 1970 without the proper building permits. There has also been an addition of a deck and barn which did not receive the proper building permits. The barn encroaches into the side setback. The parcel has been developed with a single-family residence and barn, and both structures are three feet from the northern property line. It is pertinent to the structural integrity of the barn to maintain the reduced setback.
