Fairhope, Alabama
MONDAY'S BOARD OF ADJUSTMENTS MEETING
After being pulled from the August meeting's agenda by the applicant, a controversial proposal by Bob Pope to build four condominiums on Beach Road at the base of the bluff east of the rose garden will be considered again by the city's Board of Adjustments and Appeals during Monday's September 18th meeting at 5PM in the city council chamber.
Pope is requesting an appeal of the "allowed uses" in the B3b 'Tourist Resort' zoning district (Commercial Services District) -- and a 20' rear setback variance; but the Times has been informed that city planning staff will recommend denial due to non-compliance with allowable density and the building's proposed height.
The 'Down By the Bay Cafe' currently operates in the building on the Single Tax Colony parcel leased to Pope.
Board members could accept staff's recommendation -- or vote to grant the appeal and variance as requested by the applicant.
Current Board of Adjustments members are:
Anil Vira is the current chairman of the committee.
