Good afternoon. Amy Toll with Planning Development and Economic Growth. Item before you today is PDE 26-2115 in the name of Trilby Road variance. The variance is a request to reduce the rear yard setback in an AC agricultural district from fifty feet to seventeen feet. So the petition number is uh VA-2115. It is a zoning variance. The current zoning district,
as previously noted, is AC agricultural. Future land use is AG Agricultural. The purpose is to reduce the required rear yard setback in the AC Agricultural District from 50 feet to 17 feet, and the location is at 32005 Troby Road. Which is approximately point three miles uh north of Blandon Road. Here's a visual of the subject site. It is within the North Market area and Northeast Pasco Rural Area or Rural Area One.
Here's a context map showing the subject site in proximity to Blanton Road.
Your close up aerial view.
These subjects cites future land use of AG.
The zoning of A C agricultural
Here's the property survey map that shows the barn and the single family, which is has been converted into a single family dwelling. I'll go into the findings of fact of that.
So the subject site, just project overview, consists of agricultural pursuits, a barn that was converted into a single family dwelling, another barn and an additional structure. The subject site is unplatted on ten point one six acres. So in 2001, there was an unfinished detached barn that was built because the subject site is zoned agricultural, so it was for agricultural activities. The barn was considered an accessory structure to the primary
use of agriculture, which is permitted as a principal use. In November of 2016, the previous property. Owner built the barn in addition to a two-stall garage addition. Eventually, they were converted into the single-family dwelling that's in a request today. On March 31st, 2023, the applicant actually purchased the property after these changes were made, and they purchased the property under the presumption
that it was a residence. So on October October thirtieth, in two thousand twenty-five, the applicant received a citation warning for the unpermitted structure, which resulted in this variance request.
And with that, we actually recommend approval of the proposed variance with conditions as set forth in the recommended conditions section below.
Yeah.
Sure. Which slide would you like?
That that one that's
okay.
Two thousand one the
And then in twenty sixteen the three years property with the barn. Did you install it?
Raj Edition

Uh I don't know the answer to that, but I could probably find that out fairly quickly. Sure.
Okay, anything else? Thank you, Amy.
Think you can find that out today? Okay. All right. The applicant present.
Okay. You want to come forward or is there anybody here to object?
Mr. Chair, I did have one individual signed up to speak on this, uh Ms. Linda Ward.
Ms. Linda Ward.
Pardon me?
No, I'm sorry, you can't speak from the floor. That you just need to come to the mic, we can't get it on tape and if you don't. Sorry to make you come all the way up but
We need your name and address.
It's Linda Ward, [address removed]. And I have been on that property since Ninety three. When I purchased it from Doctor Bd Um and just after I would say Ninety six, maybe ninety seven. The people that owned it then were the Williamses. Um Evelyn, I forget his name, but they actually lived in
the bar that was there. They may have added on to it since. Right. But they lived in that dwelling itself and had a contractor come in and put a little kitchen, little bathroom, so on so forth. But that's the only thing I can add other than why they'd be
made a an issue now. I d I just didn't understand that.
Okay. Are you
opposed to this variance?
I don't think so.
No, I think they should be able to stay. They're wonderful people.
Thank you. Yeah.
You can take over the pie later.
Is would the applicant have anything to comment? Okay. Any questions from up here? If not, do I hear a motion?
Motion to approve. Second.
Motion and second for the discussion. All in favor signify by saying aye. Aye. Aye. Opposed, like, sign. Motion carries. Enjoy your residence. Fine.
And the pie, yeah.
