zoning relief:  
Conditional Use for a Planned Development to allow two (2) attached dwelling units on

ZBA VOTE (to Deny): 6 Ayes, 0 Nays, 0 Absent  
Development Committee VOTE (Motion to Approve Failed): 0 Ayes, 4 Nays, 3 Absent  
Jessica Infelise Datzman, Zoning Administration Coordinator explained why the Zoning  
Board of Appeals recommended to deny the petition. It was based on the fact the  
petitioner didn't present any standards for the conditional use and lacks the necessary land  
area to support a duplex on both properties. Chair Tornatore added, there was no hardship  
presented, no unique circumstances and was out of character with properties in the area.  
This was primarily an economic request.

ZONING-25-000016 – ORDINANCE – McMaster: To approve the following zoning  
relief:  
Variation from Section 37-704.3 to reduce the lot width from 75 to 50 feet for lots served  
by sewer and water to create two buildable lots on the property. (Milton/District 4)  
ZHO Recommendation to Approve  
Development Committee VOTE (Motion to Approve): 4 Ayes, 0 Nays, 3 Absent  
Vice Chair Yoo inquired about the objection from neighbors. Ms. Infelise Datzman  
explained there were neighbors who came to the hearing who are on larger lots. The  
Zoning Hearing Officer found that some of those lots are actually two lots, with a house  
on one. However most of the subdivision has 50' wide lots. He found this request did  
meet the overall character of the neighborhood.

Member Garcia inquired if this request is typical for a cemetery. Ms. Infelise Datzman  
answered that this property is located in a single family zoning district, in which  
cemeteries are a conditional use within them. The petition is requesting to building upon  
what they already have.
