During this Public Hearing, the Town of Townsend, Board of Adjustment will consider the following Agenda:
Case No.: BA2023-002
Applicant/ Owner: Long Real Estate Investments LLC
Present Zoning: Commercial
Present Use: Commercial
Area & Location: Property is located on the corner of the intersection of Route 71 and Karin’s Boulevard on the south side of Karin’s Boulevard.
Tax Parcel Numbers: 25-008.00-002
Long Real Estate Investments LLC seeks variance to allow for a self- storage facility as the parcel is situated in the Town of Townsend Commercial District (C) pursuant to the Town’s Official Zoning Map. The Town’s Zoning Code (the “Code”) does not expressly provide self-storage facilities as permitted uses under a commercial classification. Upon further review, it was discovered that the Code does not permit self-storage under any of the Town’s zoning classifications. Because self-storage is not expressly set forth as a permitted use in Section 24.12.270(B), nor any other sections of the Code, the Town has requested that the Applicant submit this application to the Board of Adjustment.
