- Meeting Overview:
The Jackson Zoning Board granted a variance for the construction of a 12×24 foot prefab shed on a corner lot on Bane Lane, citing the property’s unique hardship due to its size and zoning requirements. The approval was part of a meeting where several resolutions were passed and no public comments were received.
During the meeting, the board heard from the property owners of 2 Bane Lane, who explained their request to place a shed in the rear corner of their lot, behind a fence. The property, located in an R5 Zone, is only one acre in size, smaller than the five-acre requirement for that zone. The zoning regulations necessitate accessory structures to be placed 100 feet from the rear yard property line and 75 feet from a side property line. However, the corner lot status of the property, with frontages along Hawken Road and Bane Lane, restricts the placement options for the shed, presenting a hardship for the owners. The board agreed with the owners’ assessment and approved the variance, acknowledging the difficulty in meeting setback requirements due to the lot’s unique configuration.
