Staff has analyzed this petit ion relative to tbese provisions and ojTers the fc,llowing responses: A. Are there special conditions and circumstanccs existing, which are peculiar to the location, size and characteristics of the land, structure or building involved'! There is no land-related hardship. The ]ot is situated in a platted. developed subdivision; and absent this Variance approval. the petitioners would still have reasonable use of their property. However, had the previous owners of the property not had the pool deck constructed at a height over the four-Ic'ot high top-of~seawall threshold established by the LDC the minimum rear yard setback for the property would only be ten feet (instead of 20 fee\): and this Variance would not be necessary. The rationale for an increased setback jc)r pool decks constructed four-reet in height or more above the top or the seawal] is to prevent a .deck's obstruction or water views ror the immediately adjacent propel1ies. However. as shown in the photo on the lower len, the water view orthe adjoining property to the west (496 Flamingo Avenue) is unimpeded by the applicants' raised deck; and, as shown in the photo on the right, the adjoining property owner to the east (454 Flamingo Avenue) has an even higher pool deek. Therefore, no such viewshed conlliets exist. B 1~[ 'J... ", $:" ,- .... l"';"'" ~,,'j, .'

Yes. As previously stated, thc applicants are not the original owners oCthe propel1y. which contained the swimming pool and screened cage enclosure upon their purchase of the home in 2001.

Will granting the variance be in harmony with thc gcncral intent and pnrpose of this Land Dcvclopmcnt Code, and not be injurious to thc ncighborhood. or othelowise detrimental to thc public welfarc'? Yes, The proposed Variance would allow the applicant to leavc a swimming pool and its associated screened cage enclosure in the same location they have been without issue since their installation ten years ago. In light of the surrounding neighbors' support. as evidenced by the 22 submitted letters-and thc numbcr of similar Variances approvcd in the immediate vicinity-approval of this Variance request would be neither injurious to the neighborhood nor detrimental to the public welfare. G. Are there natural conditions or physically induccd conditions that ameliorate the goals and objcctivcs of the regulation snch as natural prcscl"\'cS, lakes, golf courses, etc.'? Yes. The subject propcliy is a canal lot and the arca for which the Variance is being requested abuts a scawall. Bccause the previous owner of the house had the propcrty's pool deck construckd at a height apprt1ximatcly six feet abO\e the seawall (two reel higher than the f()llr-I()ot high threshold triggering the greater 20-1()ot setback) the applicants arc now compelled to apply for a Variance.
