Warsaw BZA To Hear Plans For New Shell Store On Center Street

July 28, 2016 at 4:25 p.m.

By TERESA SMITH, Times-Union Staff Writer-

Several items are on the Warsaw Board of Zoning appeals agenda. They will be heard this evening at 7 p.m. in city hall.

John Finken requests a variance from developmental standards, a 12-foot, 5-inch front yard setback for a single family, manufactured home at 214 N. Tamarack. The zoning ordinance requires a 25-foot front yard setback.

The board also will consider:

• A request by Paul Campbell of the First Baptist Church for a second institutional sign 40 square feet in size at 2819 Patterson Road. The zoning ordinance allows for one sign per zoned lot not to exceed 32 square feet in sign.

A variance was granted in July 2004 for a 37-foot, 5-inch sign that was never erected.

• A request by Jay Petroleum for the expansion of a nonconforming use (gasoline sales) at 330 E. Center St., where a Shell gas station currently exists. Plans are to demolish the current building and build a convenience store with gasoline sales.

• A request by James Stewart Jr. for a variance from developmental standards for an accessory structure three feet from the north property line and 20 feet from the east property line at 317 N. Tamarack.

Board of zoning appeals members are: Alan Clingan, Dan Hampton, Richard Keeven, Tom Heuer and Bruce Woodward. Bill Rhoades is the city council's representative. [[In-content Ad]]
