Motion was then made by Mr. Darby seconded by Mr. Brazzell that the agenda stand as written.
Motion carried unanimously.
The first item on the agenda is a resolution granting a variance to Donavan Monceaux, 1722 Todd
Street, to allow for awning to be located 2 feet from the front property line rather than the required 16.5
feet (50% rule). Mr. Abraham’s, Land Use Administrator, stated that the resolution needed to be amended
from 2 feet to 7 feet from the front property line. Motion carried unanimously.
Mr. Monceaux stated that when he went to the Permit office to get a permit to extend his decking
under his front patio the Pemit office told him that he would need a variance since his little extension in
the front was too close to the property line and he’d need a variance for his project. Mr. Monceaux then
stated that after the hurricane his contractor did the work, and he didn’t know his contractor didn’t get a
permit. Mr. Abraham’s, Land Use Administrator, stated that there’s an ordinance that states nothing can
be constructed within 10 feet of a public utility. If he would have gotten a permit, he would have been
stopped from building it. Mr. Monceaux stated that he could take down the little extension if that would
help him. Mrs. Allison stated that she didn’t have a problem with it being this close to the property line.
Mr. Abraham’s stated that if the little extension was removed then he would only need a 3½ foot variance.
His awning for his patio would be 13 feet from the front property line rather than the required 16 ½ feet.
After discussion, motion was made by Mr. LeBlanc seconded by Mr. Darby that the following
amendment be made:
- Amend 7 feet from front property line to 13 feet.
A vote was then called with the results as follows:
YEAS: Mrs. Carroll, Mr. Darby, Mr. LeBlanc, Mr. Brazzell
NAYS: Mrs. Allison
ABSENT: None
And the said amendment was declared duly adopted on this 15th day of April, 2024.
