Notice is hereby given that the Scott County Board of Zoning Appeals will hold a public hearing at the Scott County Courthouse 1 E. McClain Avenue, Room 128, Scottsburg, IN on Wednesday, April 8, 2020, at 6:00 PM at which time all interested persons will be given the opportunity to be heard in reference to the matters set out in the “Description of Action Requested” below:
Case Number: V-02-20
Applicant: Cody and Haley Proffitt
Owners: Cody and Haley Proffitt
Present Zoning: A – Agriculture
Description of Action Requested: Applicants request a variance to be allowed to build a pole barn/garage to the back right of their present home and from 7 to 9 feet away from side property line and adjacent to existing easement road.
Description of Property Affected: 72-05-36-100-004.000-005 cka 4762 East Plymouth Road, Scottsburg, IN 47170, and containing 5 acres more or less.
Reasons necessitating request: Applicants’ home was built in the 1950s with septic and lateral lines coming out the back left side of the house. Building the pole barn to the right will alleviate ruining any laterals as well as allow applicants to use current driveway. Barn site would be adjacent to current easement road but sit well away from Plymouth Road and not cause any line-of-sight issues.
The petition (application) and file on this matter are available for public inspection during the regular working hours of the Scott County Courthouse, 1 E. McClain Avenue, Scottsburg, IN, Suite G40 until two business days prior to the hearing date. (812-752-8445, ext. 1)
