hearing

33
00:06:38,220 --> 00:06:42,410
file number 19 Joan and Curtis Nylund

34
00:06:42,410 --> 00:06:45,570
3741 Emily drive Port Allen Louisiana to

35
00:06:45,570 --> 00:06:47,490
erect a metal building at the end of the

36
00:06:47,490 --> 00:06:51,120
driveway they request a variance of five

37
00:06:51,120 --> 00:06:55,320
feet from the west side setback 15 feet

38
00:06:55,320 --> 00:06:58,230
is required requesting a 10 foot instead

39
00:06:58,230 --> 00:07:01,020
the neighbors have no objections to a

40
00:07:01,020 --> 00:07:05,370
10-foot request will open the public

41
00:07:05,370 --> 00:07:08,300
hearing and ask if mr. mosz Nilan or

42
00:07:08,300 --> 00:07:11,010
either of y'all or both of you want to

43
00:07:11,010 --> 00:07:22,720
be heard or

44
00:07:22,730 --> 00:07:25,100
we appreciate the board for here in our

45
00:07:25,100 --> 00:07:28,440
petition tonight just as we said we plan

46
00:07:28,440 --> 00:07:32,639
to erect a metal building a red iron

47
00:07:32,639 --> 00:07:37,610
frame it's a very nice very

48
00:07:37,610 --> 00:07:41,010
well-constructed piece not a tubular

49
00:07:41,010 --> 00:07:42,570
frame or anything like that it is

50
00:07:42,570 --> 00:07:45,900
color-coded trimming all onto it so it

51
00:07:45,900 --> 00:07:48,110
adds to the value of the property I

52
00:07:48,110 --> 00:07:51,510
would like to have the as much variance

53
00:07:51,510 --> 00:07:53,550
as possible due to the fact of the width

54
00:07:53,550 --> 00:07:56,160
of the building winds up behind the

55
00:07:56,160 --> 00:08:00,419
garage itself so the more that I can get

56
00:08:00,419 --> 00:08:03,540
on the easement from the Western

57
00:08:03,540 --> 00:08:06,870
property will help but we understand you

58
00:08:06,870 --> 00:08:12,750
know the the limits that we have so when

59
00:08:12,750 --> 00:08:14,130
you can see about where it's going to be

60
00:08:14,130 --> 00:08:18,030
at on the back section of the property

61
00:08:18,030 --> 00:08:22,710
there is there any questions of anyone

62
00:08:22,710 --> 00:08:26,960
would like to ask for anything one thing

63
00:08:26,960 --> 00:08:30,180
I'm sure it's all very nice the thing

64
00:08:30,180 --> 00:08:32,310
that comes to my mind is setting a

65
00:08:32,310 --> 00:08:37,070
precedent can you put that building up

66
00:08:37,070 --> 00:08:40,409
using the 15 foot variance or is it just

67
00:08:40,409 --> 00:08:43,260
an inconvenience or it won't fit or just

68
00:08:43,260 --> 00:08:47,850
what it pushes one-third of the building

69
00:08:47,850 --> 00:08:50,280
behind the garage making the two double

70
00:08:50,280 --> 00:08:52,170
doors you know one of the two double

71
00:08:52,170 --> 00:08:55,620
doors unusable the only other way to

72
00:08:55,620 --> 00:08:58,620
make it work would be to spin it 180

73
00:08:58,620 --> 00:09:01,710
degrees back it up to the garage that

74
00:09:01,710 --> 00:09:03,510
you see that comes off the back of the

75
00:09:03,510 --> 00:09:06,240
home facing the whole building then west

76
00:09:06,240 --> 00:09:11,450
now that puts me closer to the rear of

77
00:09:11,450 --> 00:09:15,660
property line I think it's gonna push me

78
00:09:15,660 --> 00:09:20,760
with under ten feet might be something

79
00:09:20,760 --> 00:09:23,520
like five to seven but I did not make a

80
00:09:23,520 --> 00:09:25,920
close measurement on it either one will

81
00:09:25,920 --> 00:09:30,000
work

82
00:09:30,010 --> 00:09:43,800
back the various restrictions just asked

83
00:09:43,800 --> 00:09:46,960
he said either one would work and the

84
00:09:46,960 --> 00:09:50,620
side sent back in my mind which set a

85
00:09:50,620 --> 00:09:52,900
precedence for everybody else in that

86
00:09:52,900 --> 00:09:56,560
neighborhood if it'll fit with turning

87
00:09:56,560 --> 00:09:59,860
the building 180 degrees if he reaches

88
00:09:59,860 --> 00:10:03,070
the template variance I mean that may be

89
00:10:03,070 --> 00:10:06,130
a better option just throwing that out

90
00:10:06,130 --> 00:10:09,670
there for people thinking that the only

91
00:10:09,670 --> 00:10:11,260
thing I'm thinking about is you're

92
00:10:11,260 --> 00:10:13,120
talking about if he does it to the side

93
00:10:13,120 --> 00:10:15,580
it turns around the other way it's only

94
00:10:15,580 --> 00:10:17,590
just a few feet difference and it

95
00:10:17,590 --> 00:10:19,290
doesn't look appealing I don't think

96
00:10:19,290 --> 00:10:22,510
subdivision B no I has nothing to do

97
00:10:22,510 --> 00:10:24,490
with that statics that way yeah the only

98
00:10:24,490 --> 00:10:27,820
thing I'm saying is there's a lot of

99
00:10:27,820 --> 00:10:31,930
houses when we got and this is strictly

100
00:10:31,930 --> 00:10:40,150
asking for a variance for convenience it

101
00:10:40,150 --> 00:10:41,740
would look better with function better

102
00:10:41,740 --> 00:10:45,490
on I understand it would be perfect the

103
00:10:45,490 --> 00:10:50,920
way you're saying but as is we'd allow

104
00:10:50,920 --> 00:10:53,350
that variance I don't know how we would

105
00:10:53,350 --> 00:10:55,600
tell anybody else on that street that

106
00:10:55,600 --> 00:11:03,750
they could

107
00:11:03,760 --> 00:11:07,510
if you did turn it 180 degrees you say

108
00:11:07,510 --> 00:11:09,970
you're not sure how far from the back of

109
00:11:09,970 --> 00:11:13,269
property line that would be I can do a

110
00:11:13,269 --> 00:11:15,940
rough math you know in my head and see

111
00:11:15,940 --> 00:11:21,970
its see 24 foot puts me 10 it would put

112
00:11:21,970 --> 00:11:27,040
me roughly 130 feet it's gonna put me

113
00:11:27,040 --> 00:11:30,510
right at the 10 feet okay line point

114
00:11:30,510 --> 00:11:33,940
because the building right now is 24

115
00:11:33,940 --> 00:11:38,860
feet in depth which puts me close to the

116
00:11:38,860 --> 00:11:41,800
10 foot line from the back so if I add

117
00:11:41,800 --> 00:11:43,959
the other 10 feet to it spin it around

118
00:11:43,959 --> 00:11:47,170
I'm gonna be over you know pushing back

119
00:11:47,170 --> 00:11:49,480
to that line if you're spending around

120
00:11:49,480 --> 00:11:50,769
want to make that building less

121
00:11:50,769 --> 00:11:54,880
functional no wood it would not make it

122
00:11:54,880 --> 00:11:57,490
less functional I'm gonna have to rework

123
00:11:57,490 --> 00:11:59,410
concrete anyway

124
00:11:59,410 --> 00:12:01,899
the slabs going to six inches it's going

125
00:12:01,899 --> 00:12:03,670
to be a two-foot footing all the way

126
00:12:03,670 --> 00:12:07,209
around so it just puts me pretty close

127
00:12:07,209 --> 00:12:11,889
to the canal bank I did not like to say

128
00:12:11,889 --> 00:12:15,610
take good hard measurements on that way

129
00:12:15,610 --> 00:12:17,740
me because I assumed it would be so it's

130
00:12:17,740 --> 00:12:20,350
possible that you could be closer than

131
00:12:20,350 --> 00:12:22,029
you should be that 10-foot setback is

132
00:12:22,029 --> 00:12:25,540
fun I'm afraid I'm over by the math I

133
00:12:25,540 --> 00:12:27,550
know that I'm gonna be over because I'm

134
00:12:27,550 --> 00:12:30,910
right at it right now at 24 feet give or

135
00:12:30,910 --> 00:12:33,430
take a foot I'm right at that 10 foot

136
00:12:33,430 --> 00:12:36,610
marker so if I add another you know if

137
00:12:36,610 --> 00:12:39,459
we go from 24 to 30 years I'm 5 feet

138
00:12:39,459 --> 00:12:43,089
into it without you know any question at

139
00:12:43,089 --> 00:12:45,850
all if that is ok and if that's why we

140
00:12:45,850 --> 00:12:48,490
have to go I can make it work

141
00:12:48,490 --> 00:12:51,490
the problem right now is that the by

142
00:12:51,490 --> 00:12:56,139
shoving it to the east right now as much

143
00:12:56,139 --> 00:12:58,720
as 13 feet it makes half of it unusable

144
00:12:58,720 --> 00:13:02,260
from an entryway right at 5 feet

145
00:13:02,260 --> 00:13:05,459
you know if I'm getting 10 foot variants

146
00:13:05,459 --> 00:13:08,500
right where the door is right against

147
00:13:08,500 --> 00:13:13,870
the edge of the of the shop area right

148
00:13:13,870 --> 00:13:15,230
at the tail end of it

149
00:13:15,230 --> 00:13:18,769
if I could get to five it really makes

150
00:13:18,769 --> 00:13:23,029
it completely functional but I'm willing

151
00:13:23,029 --> 00:13:25,660
to work any way I can you know with this

152
00:13:25,660 --> 00:13:28,339
to see if we can get to some agreement

153
00:13:28,339 --> 00:13:30,560
on it I'm stuck with a shop right now

154
00:13:30,560 --> 00:13:35,650
sitting back there and pieces do it

155
00:13:35,660 --> 00:13:39,199
my only dilemma is it has nothing to do

156
00:13:39,199 --> 00:13:41,060
with the aesthetic quality I'm quite

157
00:13:41,060 --> 00:13:42,649
sure looking at your house it's big

158
00:13:42,649 --> 00:13:44,060
enough I could probably drop to the my

159
00:13:44,060 --> 00:13:51,230
house but what's fair to everybody else

160
00:13:51,230 --> 00:13:54,500
on Emily Drive is what comes into play

161
00:13:54,500 --> 00:13:58,029
if we okay that without a hardship

162
00:13:58,029 --> 00:14:01,820
that's irreversible you know that you

163
00:14:01,820 --> 00:14:06,350
just can't get around it it opens up a

164
00:14:06,350 --> 00:14:09,800
precedent for anybody else on that very

165
00:14:09,800 --> 00:14:11,630
long street full of houses to do the

166
00:14:11,630 --> 00:14:14,779
same thing and whether their neighbors

167
00:14:14,779 --> 00:14:23,870
like it or not it's gets sticky

168
00:14:23,880 --> 00:14:28,680
I'm just gonna ask if you moved it over

169
00:14:28,680 --> 00:14:31,550
to I guess you said the east you'd lose

170
00:14:31,550 --> 00:14:34,370
usage of one of the double garage doors

171
00:14:34,370 --> 00:14:37,769
completely yeah it makes it a single

172
00:14:37,769 --> 00:14:39,839
entry then instead of the double which

173
00:14:39,839 --> 00:14:43,040
was originally designed for understeer

174
00:14:43,040 --> 00:14:47,850
I'm moving up as far as I can to on top

175
00:14:47,850 --> 00:14:50,399
of the house just about with it but I'm

176
00:14:50,399 --> 00:14:50,970
sure you are

177
00:14:50,970 --> 00:14:53,240
I know you're trying to make this work

178
00:14:53,240 --> 00:14:59,040
and I want to see it work but I just

179
00:14:59,040 --> 00:15:04,380
want to let everybody know they need to

180
00:15:04,380 --> 00:15:06,630
pick what's best for not only this

181
00:15:06,630 --> 00:15:09,329
gentleman here but everybody else on the

182
00:15:09,329 --> 00:15:13,069
street you know who knows it opens up

183
00:15:13,069 --> 00:15:16,440
that I'll call it a can of worms it may

184
