Refer to LDC Section 25.00 for zoning district lot standards.
Per LDC Section 215.02.2, the Board of Adjustment may only grant a variance to allow a nonconforming lot of record to be built upon if the following standards are met and proven by competent substantial evidence.
Please review each standard (numbered 1 through 3) on the following pages and provide a justification on how your request meets each standard.
The lot consists of at least one entire lot of record on the effective date of this Code. (Explain when the lot was created and provide a copy of the plat, if possible, from the Pinellas County Property Appraiser or Clerk's Public Records.)
The lot was not created in violation of a previous zoning ordinance. (Explain when the lot was separated, platted or subdivided.)
The lot was not combined with a neighboring lot under common ownership in order to allow the existing improvements on the neighboring developed lot to meet applicable setbacks. (If the neighboring property is developed, does the structure meet the minimum setbacks from the shared property line if the properties were split?)
