Civic issues
Topics getting the most attention in Green public meetings, ranked by how frequently they come up.
Detached garage variances, 2858 Turkeyfoot Lake Road
A property owner wants a detached garage in his second frontage, six inches taller than allowed, and nearly 400 square feet over the accessory cap. The board weighs whether the oversized garage fits the lot.
Side-yard shed variance, 2761 Superior Drive
A homeowner wants to place a shed in his side yard, which the zoning code doesn't allow. The board decides whether the property's layout justifies an exception.
Side setback variances for home addition, 261 Luzon Circle
Rembrandt Homes wants to build a bathroom addition that leaves a 10-foot side setback where 15 feet is required. Neighbors' lot-line spacing is the issue.
Accessory structure height limits and RV storage
Contractors told the board the 15-foot accessory structure height cap regularly forces variance requests for RV-height pole barns, and there are rumors council may revisit it.
