Board of Zoning Adjustment Meeting June 3, 2026

The City of Auburn, Alabama Board of Zoning Adjustment held a meeting on June 3, 2026, primarily to consider a zoning variance request for a residential property at 203 Bridgewater Boulevard. The applicant sought two variances: one to exceed the maximum impervious surface ratio (ISR) from 35% to 36% due to an existing concrete patio, and a second variance to reduce the rear setback for a proposed covered porch addition over the patio. After discussion, the board approved the variance for the ISR to allow the existing patio to remain but denied the variance for the rear setback, citing lack of unique hardship and potential alternative options. The board also discussed the implications of the variance running with the land and the importance of compliance with zoning regulations. No other procurement or budget matters were addressed during the meeting.
