Variance Requests:
7.
The applicant proposes a group of variances to allow the construction of a detached
garage within the front yard area of single-family parcel zoned R1-35 RUPD . These include
a request to reduce the front setback to 21’ where 40’ is the minimum required, permitting
construction outside of the platted building envelope and to install a block wall outside of
the envelope where only certain fencing types are allowed. The building envelope
limitations are a development standard of the R1-35 RUPD zoning district.

Site Analysis:
8.
The parcel is located at the end of a cul-de-sac, Blue Eagle Ln.. Due to the orientation of
the parcel and the street, the front is only at the bulb of the cul-de-sac. However, this entire
required front yard is within the delineated drainage easement (DE). The recorded plat
(MCR 315-6) also delineates building envelopes (BE) for each lot. These BEs deviate from
the ordinance standards as part of the R1-35 RUPD zoning district standards. For instance
the subject lot is Lot 145 of Desert Hills Estates. It’s BE is based upon a north lot line
designated as the front and thus a south lot line as the rear. The east and west are
designated as side lot lines. This even though the east lot line would normally be
considered a street line for 7th St. It is however separated from the lot by a platted non-
vehicular access easement (NVAE). This all has the affect of having the front oriented to
the north in alignment with other lots along the south side of Blue Eagle Ln.
9.
Based on the R1-35 RUPD zoning, the plat was designed to allow all fencing types within
the BE. Outside of the BE only wood, pipe rail, wrought iron without plasterers, single wire
strand or corral post type fencing is allowed. This is mainly due to the drainage
requirements set forth with the plat. The subdivision utilizes delineated BEs on each lot
and an extensive DE natural drainage network rather than formalized drainage
infrastructure and common retention areas.

State Statute / County Zoning Ordinance Tests - ARS § 11-816.B.2 and MCZO Article 303.2.2
states the Board of Adjustment may, “Allow a variance from the terms of the ordinance if, owing
to peculiar conditions, a strict interpretation would work an unnecessary hardship and if in
granting the variance the general intent and purposes of the zoning ordinance will be preserved.”
11.
Statutory Test -1 Does the applicant’s property contain any peculiar condition– Discuss
and explain what is/are the peculiar conditions facing the property and include reference
to the Maricopa County Zoning Ordinance Regulations or Development Standards to be
varied.
“The ordinance being referred to is MCDD 2012-10 and MCDD 2011-04 and
MCZO. Article
1106.2 and Article 601.4 and MCZO Chapter 2- Definitions: Setback Line and
Street and
Street Line. The property at 615 E Blue Eagle Lane is an irregular shape leaving
boundary setbacks and useable space limited. We are requesting a variance to the
north boundary setback (40 feet) to be able to put an accessory building on that
portion of the property 21 feet 6 inches from the boundary line. This will allow us to
maximize the use of our property.”
12.
Statutory Test 2 – Does applying the requirements of the Ordinance to the applicant’s
property create an Unnecessary Hardship – Explain how the peculiar condition identified
in #1 causes an unnecessary hardship to the property when the requirements of the
Maricopa County Zoning Ordinance are applied. Explain how the that the peculiar
condition of the property came to be and whether the condition was created by the
applicant or someone in the property’s line of title. Explain the proposed use of the
property with the variance request. Identify and explain all peculiar conditions on your
property in regard to the following areas: slope, narrowness, shallowness, irregular shape,
location, washes, vegetation, and easements, etc. Explain how enforcement of the Zoning
Regulations or Development Standards would impose a hardship on the property.
“Due to the irregular shape of the property including the septic system which is located on
Page 7 of 8
the northeast section and a wash/drainage easement on the northwest side of the property,
there is limited useable space for an accessory building within the ordinance guidelines.
The variance will allow us to place the accessory building in the area between the septic
and drainage easement. If we were to move the accessory building outside the 40-foot
property boundary it would then be in the drainage easement or over the septic system on
the property.”
13.
Statutory Test 3 – General Intent and Purpose of the Zoning Ordinance – Discuss the
purpose of the zoning requirement from which the variance is being sought. Then, discuss
and explain how, provided statutory tests #1 and #2 are satisfied, the granting of the
requested variance would preserve the general intent and purpose of the Zoning
Ordinance.
“Granting this variance request will not impact the neighborhood, which is the intent of the
ordinance. Granting this variance will allow the accessory building to be set back on our
property, away from the main street and view of the neighbors. The neighboring property
to the north that shares the property line is a floodway for the neighbors wash and thus
not useable for any residential building space. Placing our accessory building within the
40-foot setback will not impact their property utilization either.”
Findings:
14.
The applicant has the burden of proving to the Board that, in accordance with the standard
set forth in ARS §11-816.B.2 and MCZO Article 303.2.2, the property requires a variance.
To grant the relief, the applicant must prove, and the Board must find and identify, a
physical condition of the applicant’s property that is peculiar and not common to the area
or the universe of the zoning district. Also, any such peculiarity must not have been
created either by the applicant or anyone in the chain of title. If the Board determines that
there is no such peculiar physical condition, its inquiry stops, and the application must be
denied.
If the Board identifies a peculiar physical condition of the applicant’s property which is not
self-imposed, then the applicant must prove, and the Board must find and identify, an
unnecessary hardship imposed upon the property due to the strict application of the
requirements of the zoning ordinance which the applicant wishes to have varied such that
there is no viable use of the property without the variance.
If the Board identifies a peculiar physical condition of the property which is not self-
imposed, and that in applying the requirements of the zoning ordinance to the property,
because of the peculiar physical condition, an unnecessary hardship exists, the applicant
must prove, and the Board must find and identify, how the granting of the variance will
preserve the general intent and purpose of the zoning ordinance.
In order to approve the variance, the Board must make findings and articulate them in
motion memorializing the above.
15.
Based upon what the applicant has submitted and the staff analysis in this report, staff
offers the following positive and/or negative observations the Board may consider in its
findings:
•
The platted lot has a designated front along the north lot line which is not along
actual street frontage. The street frontage is a cul-de-sac along the northwest lot
line and separated from the lot’s building envelope by a drainage easement.
Page 8 of 8
•
The parcel requires conformance to building envelopes which limit accessory
structures and fencing types. No fencing is permitted within drainage easements.
16.
And further, if the Board finds the applicant has satisfied the statutory test, and has stated
its findings on the record, the grant of this variance will memorialize the following:
a)
Variance approval establishes a front 21’ (north) setback line for APN 211-23-199.
b)
Variance approval establishes that a building to be permitted outside of the platted
building envelope for APN 211-23-199 may be permitted based upon a 21’ front
(north) setback line.
c)
Variance approval establishes that a block wall may be permitted outside of the
platted building envelope for APN 211-23-199. All wall construction must meet
MCZO drainage provisions at time of permitting. No walls or fencing is permitted
within the platted drainage easement/s.

VARIANCE SUPPLEMENTAL QUESTIONNAIRE
ARS §11-816 B.2
The Board of Adjustment may allow a variance from the terms of the ordinance when, owing to peculiar
conditions, a strict interpretation would work an unnecessary hardship, if in granting such variance the
general intent and purposes of the zoning ordinance will be preserved.
1.
Please discuss and explain what is/are the peculiar condition(s) facing the property and include reference to the
Maricopa County Zoning Ordinance Regulation(s) or Development Standard(s) to be varied. Explain the proposed
use of the property with the variance request. Identify and explain all peculiar conditions on your property in regard
to the following areas: slope, narrowness, shallowness, irregular shape, location, washes, vegetation, and
easements, etc. Explain how enforcement of the Zoning Regulation(s) or Development Standard(s) would impose
a hardship on the property.
The ordinance being referred to is MCDD 2012-10 and MCDD 2011-04 and MCZO. Article
1106.2 and Article 601.4 and MCZO Chapter 2- Definitions: Setback Line and Street and
Street Line.
The property at 615 E Blue Eagle Lane is an irregular shape leaving boundary setbacks and
useable space limited. We are requesting a variance to the north boundary setback (40
feet) to be able to put an accessory building on that portion of the property 21 feet 6 inches
from the boundary line. This will allow us to maximize the use of our property.
2.
Please explain the unnecessary hardship the Maricopa County Zoning Ordinance creates because of a peculiar
condition/the peculiar conditions on site. Please discuss and explain that the peculiar condition of the property is
not self-created in the line of title.
Due to the irregular shape of the property including the septic system which is located on
the northeast section and a wash/drainage easement on the northwest side of the property,
there is limited useable space for an accessory building within the ordinance guidelines.
The variance will allow us to place the accessory building in the area between the septic
and drainage easement. If we were to move the accessory building outside the 40-foot
property boundary it would then be in the drainage easement or over the septic system on
the property.

Please discuss and explain how the granting of the requested variance would not cause a negative impact on
the general intent and purpose of the Zoning Ordinance.
Granting this variance request will not impact the neighborhood, which is the intent of the
ordinance. Granting this variance will allow the accessory building to be set back on our
property, away from the main street and view of the neighbors. The neighboring property
to the north that shares the property line is a floodway for the neighbors wash and thus
not useable for any residential building space. Placing our accessory building within the
40-foot setback will not impact their property utilization either.

Standards: Please be advised no detached accessory
buildings/structures allowed within the 40-ft. front
setback. A building setback line (BSL) is a line
measured from the interior edge of the right-of-way
line or ingress/egress road easement line or property
line as applicable. The proposed detached
building/structure must be located a minimum of 40
feet from the northern parcel boundary lot line and
existing cul-de-sac R/W line. For obtaining permit
approval and zoning clearance. Revise the site plan
accordingly meeting setback clearance for the
proposed new construction. It’s recommended to
relocate the proposed detached accessory
building/garage from 21-ft .6”. to the minimum 40-ft.
