VAR 26-021 — Covered patio addition attached to rear of single-family residence in Coweta County, GA
Applicant seeks a variance to reduce the required setback between a proposed covered patio and existing pool from 10 feet to 7 feet on a 2.025-acre RC-zoned residential property in Sharpsburg. The variance is requested due to the existing locations of the residence and pool limiting available buildable space, and the applicant cites health reasons (family history of skin cancer) for needing shaded outdoor area. Staff has recommended approval subject to three conditions: proper engineering of footing design to prevent load transfer to pool walls, septic system distance verification, and compliance with the reduced 7-foot setback.
