6. Narrative Description of Proposed Work/Project: (use additional sheets if necessary)
4DD )-no7( --m n4rz1 i1X3 t QL,7�,C6 Arr WS i3R%'04'F
State How Work/Proposal Complies with the following Finding Criteria: (see also Section 9.2)
a) Explain why the existing building, lot or use is legally pre-existing non -conforming. (Buildings, lots or uses
that are in existence at the time new zoning is enacted are protected under grandfathering provisions)
The barn was originally a principal structure for a principal use on the property. So given that there were two principal
uses, a farm and a residence, the two structures and their setbacks should be reviewed accordingly. Under section
6.2 URC dimensional requirements for "any other allowed use not listed above", the side setback is 10'. Thus it is
pre-existing, non -conforming for the side setback of a conforming principal use. Since the setback for attached
accessory structures used only as workshop, garage, or storage requires the same side setback of 10', changing
from a barn/farm use to an attached accessory garage that requires the same side setback would not create a new
non -conformity.
b) Does the change, extension or alteration create a new violation of the zoning, which would require a
variance? F Yes No If Yes, explain
c) Explain how the change, extension or alteration shall not be substantially more detrimental than the
existing nonconforming use to the neighborhood:
