LEXINGTON, Ky. — The Lexington-Fayette Urban County Board of Adjustment is scheduled to consider several zoning appeals at its meeting on August 10, with cases ranging from residential fence height restrictions to a church expansion project.
The board will hear three variance appeals, according to the agenda. In Council District 10, James Mathews is requesting to increase the maximum height of a wall in the side street side yard from 4 feet to 5 feet on property at 298 Lafayette Parkway in a Single Family Residential zone. Staff recommends disapproval, citing concerns about sight distance hazards near a public school and the lack of special circumstances unique to the property. Four-foot tall fences are typical across residential zones, according to the staff recommendation.
Two other variance appeals have staff support. Iryna V. Vestring and Serhiy Yaremchuk are requesting to reduce the minimum driveway length from 15 feet to 13 feet, 6 inches at 643 E. Loudon Avenue in Council District 1. Staff recommends approval, noting the driveway configuration provides necessary parking where on-street parking is unavailable and similar to nearby properties.
In Council District 5, Kenwick Partners LLC seeks to reduce the required front yard setback from 87 feet to 20 feet to construct a single family residence at 272 Lincoln Avenue. Staff recommends approval, citing compatibility with the surrounding neighborhood within the Infill and Redevelopment Area.
The board will also hear a conditional use permit amendment for Berea Christian Church to construct a sanctuary and parking lot. Staff recommends approval with modifications, including removal of parking within the floodplain and a reduction of the front yard setback from 50 feet to 30 feet rather than the requested 15 feet. The expansion is intended to accommodate the growing congregation while maintaining current operating hours.
The meeting is scheduled to begin at 1:30 p.m. in the Council Chambers at 200 East Main Street.
