A variance has been approved by the Mesa Board of Adjustment for a carport beam to continue to encroach into a setback but not for an existing shop at a home near West Rio Salado Parkway and North Country Club Drive.
The seven-member board conducts public meetings to hear and decide requests for variances, special-use permits and interpretations of the city of Mesa zoning ordinance and sign code. Members are appointed for staggered terms of three years, according to the city’s website.
The variance to allow an existing carport support beam to encroach into the rear and side setbacks within the single-residence-9 zoning district was approved in a unanimous vote Aug. 3 of a consent agenda with other items.
