Re: Variance ApplicationTax Account #03-428-09793605William & Marie Crump1917 Hidden Point Road
Annapolis, Maryland 21409
I. Letter of Explanation:
The property owners, William & Marie Crump, intend to construct a small additionon the water side of their single-family house. The property is zoned RLD and islocated in the Critical Area Overlay with an LDA designation.
II. Variance Requested:
A. Variance to Article 18-4-401(a) of County Code: We are requesting avariance to allow an addition to be constructed within 50 feet of the front
(water side) property line.
B. Variance to Article 18-4-401(b) of County Code: We are requesting avariance to allow an addition to be constructed in the 50-foot planted bufferbetween the principal structure and the crest of steep slopes.
I. Proposal and Justification
The subject property consists of 55, 652SF on Mill Creek. The property is BufferModified, and the existing house sits 38. 7 feet from the shoreline to the east. The
50-foot front setback line passes through the existing house. The 25-foot buffer tosteep slopes likewise intersects the existing dwelling.
The proposed addition will be added above an existing impervious courtyard patio.Specifically, the footprint of the existing house forms a shallow U-shape, and theproposed addition would fill in a portion of the D. The proposed addition wouldalign with an existing wall plane and would be approximately 45 feet from thewater line.
2 | 2/14/2020
In addition to the variance requested here, the proposed plan will require twomodifications to Article 17-6-403 to allow disturbance within 25 feet of the crest of
steep slopes. The necessary modification will be requested separately, however,information is provided here for context, only. The first modification is requestedfor the proposed addition to the structure above the existing impervious patio. Theaddition falls within the slope buffer and therefore may technically require amodification despite its proposed location above a previously developed patio area.The second modification will be requested for an area of disturbance to remove an
existing gravel driveway, which will be replanted as part of the proposed reductionin lot coverage.
Current lot coverage on the site is 14, 067 square feet, in excess of the 8, 348 squarefeet (15%) allowed by the Critical Area Law based on the lot area. The propertyowners are proposing to reduce the excess tot coverage by 10% of the overage asrequired under Section 17-8-403 of the Anne Arundel County Code.
IV. Notes, Setbacks, and Coverage:
The owners are proposing to reduce the total lot coverage on site as part of thisproject to comply with Anne Arundel County Code Article 17-8-403, which statesthat reconfiguration of existing lot coverage shall result in a 10% reduction of theimpervious surface exceeding the maximum permitted lot coverage. The existinglot coverage is 14,067 square feet and the allowable coverage after 10% reductionis 13, 495 SF. The proposed lot coverage is 13, 303 square feet.
The owners are requesting a variance to the required front yard. hlowever, therequested addition will not project toward the water any farther than the existingwalls of the principal structure, as the addition will fill in a U-shaped court in theexisting plan. Overall, the proposed changes will enable the applicant to reduce lotcoverage and the proposed addition to the structure will not increase the perceivedbulk or lot coverage as to the required front yard.
V. 3-1-207. Standards for granting variance
A Zoning variance may be granted only upon an affirmative finding that:
A. Because of certain unique physical conditions, such as irregularity,narrowness or shallowness of lot size and shape or exceptionaltopographical conditions peculiar to and inherent in the particular lot, thereis no reasonable possibility of developing the lot in strict conformance withthis article; or
3 | 2/14/2020
B. Because of exceptional circumstances other than financial considerations,the grant of a variance is necessary to avoid practical difficulties orunnecessary hardship and to enable the applicant to develop the lot.
The existing house on the site was constructed in 1957 within the now
required front yard prior to the RLD zoning of the property and theapplication of the front yard requirement. Additionally, the 50-foot plantedbuffer was not required prior to the re-zoning.
Due to the location of the existing structure, no expansion or changes to thefront of the house can be located outside of the front setback. The portionsof the house adjacent to the proposed expansion already project farther intothe front setback than the proposed addition, which is proposed above analready developed area of the site.
Required findings: A variance may not be granted unless it is found that:
A. The variance is the minimum variance necessary to afford relief;
The area of the proposed addition is 256 square feet. The water side facadeof the addition has been placed in plane with an existing wall of thestructure, and does not project farther toward the shoreline than the existingstructure.
B. the granting of the variance will not:
a. alter the essential character of the neighborhood or district in which thelot is located;
The proposed addition to an existing single-family dwelling will maintain theexisting residential use of the lot and will not alter the character of theneighborhood. The proposed expansion is small and is not visible exceptfrom the water, from which vantage it is in keeping with the massing anddesign of the existing house.
b. substantially impair the appropriate use or development of adjacentproperty;
The proposed addition is small and will not impact adjacent property. Due tothe placement of the addition within the projected wings of the existinghouse, it will be invisible from other properties except when viewed from thewater.
4 | 2/14/2020
c. reduce forest cover in the limited and resource conservation areas of the
critical area; be contrary to acceptable clearing and replanting practicesrequired for development in the critical area or bog protection area; or
The proposed addition necessitating the variance will not require removal ofany forest cover as it is located above an existing impervious patio courtyard.
d. be detrimental to the public welfare.
The request to add to the existing structure above the already imperviouscourtyard has no effect on the public welfare and the overall redevelopmentplan will benefit the public welfare since it will reduce lot coverage on awaterfront lot. Nor will the proposed changes affect other improvementslocated within the same neighborhood.
Thank you for your consideration.
