STREETSBORO BOARD OF ZONING AND BUILDING APPEALS

Mrs. Szabo added Ms. Vadaj kind of helped her to the best of her knowledge but other than
that, no.
Mr. Newill still had an issue with the practical difficulty since there was another solution to this
on the two acre minimum. He understood the setback on the building line but he thought they
were being told there was a possibility of unfavorable things happening but didn’t think that
was a rational for not holding them to the two acre minimum if in fact there was another
solution to the situation.
Mr. Hillyer agreed, he thought there was an alternative solution for adjustment, there might be
a way to subtlety alter the line to make it work for everyone. He was still trying to figure out
what the practical difficulty was.
Mrs. Szabo stated again the buyers did not want to take care of the property on the hill,
despite the runoff and the things that could happen if someone built something they don’t
have the equipment to take care of the hill.
Mr. Bross explained they would be voting on these separately.
Motion: Mr. Bross
I hereby move on this 21 th day of May, 2013, the Streetsboro Board of Zoning and
Building Appeals grant a variance to 8729 State Route 43 – Szabo request a variance
from Sec. 1125.03(a)(1) of the Zoning Code to allow a minimum lot area per dwelling
unit to be 1.87 acres where the code requires 2.0 acres. Variance is for 0.13 acre. Per
drawings submitted 04-02-13. Subject to all Planning and Zoning ordinances and site
plan review of the City of Streetsboro where applicable. Seconded by Mr. Berecek.
Roll call: Yes – 0, No – 5. Motion denied.
Motion: Mr. Bross
I hereby move on this 21 th day of May, 2012, the Streetsboro Board of Zoning and
Building Appeals grant a variance to 8729 State Route 43 – Szabo B. Request a
variance from Sec. 1125.03(b)(1) to allow the minimum width at the building setback
line be 155 where the code requires 175. Variance is for 20 feet. The property is zoned
R-R. Per drawings submitted 04-02-13. Subject to all Planning and Zoning ordinances
and site plan review of the City of Streetsboro where applicable. Seconded by Mr.
Hillyer.
Roll call: Yes – 4, No – 2 (Bross, Mustafa). Motion carried.
Mrs. Mustafa said the first request for a variance has been declined and she believed she
was hearing from the board two different things; for the application, there was a lot of
confusion as to what the answers were and they found it difficult to see a practical difficulty.
So that was the reason for the decline on the first one but the second request is passed and
she appreciated them coming in and tomorrow they could stop in to Planning and Zoning to
discuss other alternatives.
Mrs. Szabo asked which one passed and which one didn’t.
