Reason: When purchased, my property had an existing 12’ x 32’ concrete pad, with a 12’ x 22’ storage shed already constructed. Over time, the supports of the existing shed became termite damaged. Because it would not change the existing footprint or require additional foundation, I began repairs and to extend the roof over the existing pad. Without the variance, I will not be able to complete the 120 square foot extension of my storage shed..
