25-6306 — Marginal dock encroaching into rear setback, residential waterfront property with pool deck in Jupiter, FL
A variance request for a waterfront residential property was denied by the Zoning Board of Adjustments due to failure to meet all seven variance criteria, particularly regarding the marginal dock's encroachment into the required 7.5-foot green space setback. The applicant sought to allow the dock to encroach landward up to 2 feet to parallel the house, but commissioners found the design did not comply with code standards and noted the non-compliance was discovered during inspection approximately 2.5 years after initial permitting.
