B. C. D. E. The applicant is requesting a variance to construct a new second story and a first floor bedroom addition which would maintain an existing nonconforming 3' 2" sideyard setback rather than the required 5' setback; The project will also require a variance to Section 1309 of the zoning ordinance regarding expansion of nonconforming structures. Additions to nonconforming structures are only permitted when the proposed addition adheres to all codes; There are no unusual features of size, shape, or topography which justify granting a variance for this property. The property is rectangular, relatively flat, and large, approximately 5500 square feet; The variance is not necessary to obtain or preserve a property right possessed by other property owners in the area since a large addition can be made to the existing structure which will conform with zoning regulations; The variance will not be detrimental to the general public since an encroachment into the sideyard setback will only affect the neighborhing property; -1 - F.
